Abstract

Abstract: This study investigated the prevalence and risk factors of probable posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and complicated grief among 529 adults residing in a container city, 4 months after the 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye. Participants were assessed using the PTSD Checklist for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition, the Hamilton Depression Scale, and the Inventory of Complicated Grief. The prevalence rates of probable PTSD, depression, and complicated grief were 21.4%, 15.9%, and 64.7%, respectively. Logistic regression analyses indicated that PTSD was significantly associated with the loss of a loved one, fear of future earthquakes, and decreased perceived life control. Similarly, depression was associated with being trapped under debris, experiencing fear during the earthquake, and reduced perceived life control. These findings suggest that individuals presenting these risk factors warrant closer follow-up for potential psychological issues. Additionally, the impact of fear related to the earthquake and the role of perceived life control emerge as crucial considerations for psychological interventions.

2023 年土耳其地震幸存者中创伤后应激障碍、抑郁和悲伤的患病率和风险因素。

摘要：本研究调查了 2023 年土耳其地震发生 4 个月后，居住在集装箱城市的 529 名成年人中可能出现的创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）、抑郁和复杂悲伤的患病率和风险因素。研究人员使用《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第五版创伤后应激障碍核对表、汉密尔顿抑郁量表和复杂悲伤量表对参与者进行了评估。可能患有创伤后应激障碍、抑郁和复杂悲伤的比例分别为 21.4%、15.9% 和 64.7%。逻辑回归分析表明，创伤后应激障碍与失去亲人、对未来地震的恐惧和对生活控制感的下降有显著关联。同样，抑郁症也与被困在废墟下、在地震中感到恐惧和生活控制感降低有关。这些研究结果表明，出现这些风险因素的人需要更密切地跟踪潜在的心理问题。此外，与地震有关的恐惧的影响和感知到的生活控制力的作用也成为心理干预的重要考虑因素。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease publishes peer-reviewed articles containing new data or ways of reorganizing established knowledge relevant to understanding and modifying human behavior, especially that defined as impaired or diseased, and the context, applications and effects of that knowledge. Our policy is summarized by the slogan, "Behavioral science for clinical practice." We consider articles that include at least one behavioral variable, clear definition of study populations, and replicable research designs. Authors should use the active voice and first person whenever possible.
