Abstract

Objective: This study investigated the usefulness of the trauma intervention, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), for adolescents in residential treatment.

Method: The study employed a secondary analysis of 132 adolescent trauma cases collected from youth while in a residential treatment facility in Mississippi.

Results: Analysis indicated that clients showed significant decreases in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) severity scores after receiving TF-CBT in residential care. PTSD severity scores were significantly higher for the residential care sample as compared to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network's average baseline score. Females reported significantly higher PTSD and substance use scores than males. PTSD baseline scores, substance use scores, and gender contributed significantly to the prediction of PTSD outcomes post intervention.

Conclusion: Implications, based on study findings, to enhance services for traumatized youth in residential care were explored and discussed.

调查以创伤为中心的认知行为治疗在青少年住宿护理中的有效性。

目的:本研究探讨创伤干预，以创伤为中心的认知行为治疗(TF-CBT)在青少年住院治疗中的有效性。方法:该研究采用了一个二次分析，从青少年收集的132例青少年创伤，而在密西西比州的住宅治疗设施。结果:分析表明，在住院治疗中接受TF-CBT治疗后，患者的创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)严重程度评分显著降低。与全国儿童创伤压力网络的平均基线得分相比，住院护理样本的创伤后应激障碍严重程度得分明显更高。女性报告的创伤后应激障碍和物质使用得分明显高于男性。PTSD基线评分、物质使用评分和性别对干预后PTSD结局的预测有显著影响。结论:基于研究结果，本研究探讨了加强创伤青少年寄宿服务的意义。
