This study introduces a novel approach to examining gender and PTSD, moving beyond the binary group labels of male and female to explore the summative impact of gender-linked sociocultural factors. Using supervised machine learning, we modeled gender from theoretical and empirically selected predictors reflecting the roles, relationships, and institutional facets of gender. This model produced continuous gender scores reflecting the social circumstances typical of male (lower scores) or female (higher scores) individuals. We then examined how well these scores were associated with past-year PTSD among trauma-exposed men and women (N = 23,936) and compared effects to those obtained using binary sex. The results revealed a clear dose-response relationship between the social circumstances typical of female gender and past-year PTSD. Main effects for gender scores, adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 4.03, 95% CI [2.64, 6.15], were substantially larger than main effects for binary sex, aOR = 2.69, 95% CI [1.96, 3.68], z = 2.30, p = .021, even after accounting for trauma exposure and other risk factors.

Problematic anger (i.e., intense anger paired with significant distress and functional impairment linked to) is gaining attention in military and veteran populations.

Intake assessments included measures of anger, psychological conditions, and military and demographic variables. Approximately 63% of participants reported problematic anger. Respondents who endorsed problematic anger had higher rates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom severity, d = 1.06; depression, d = 0.82; anxiety symptom frequency, d = 0.94; and harmful drinking, d = 0.36, ps < .001, compared to those who did not.

This is the first study to report on problematic anger in a Canadian military/veteran context, and the results suggest that almost two thirds of veterans endorsed problematic anger, which is higher than previously reported prevalence rates.

Identifying mechanisms associated with this inequity is critical to advancing preventative and responsive treatment. Blunted cortisol reactivity to psychosocial stress represents one possible mechanism, though the influence of sex and specific dimensions of trauma on this condition are underinvestigated. This study examined the roles of sex, developmental timing of trauma, trauma subtype, and subjective trauma impact on cortisol reactivity. Adults (N = 59, n = 37 female) participated in the Trier Social Stress Test, completed trauma measures, and provided salivary cortisol samples. Multiple regression analyses were performed to investigate correlates of blunted cortisol reactivity in the full sample and in sex-disaggregated data to account for unique endocrinological milieus. Women who endorsed childhood trauma demonstrated blunted cortisol reactivity, B = -8.72, p = .004, f <sup>2</sup> = .39; notably, this association held only when participants endorsed the childhood traumatic event as their most stressful lifetime event. Considering the lack of clarity regarding the conditions under which blunted cortisol reactivity develops, these findings provide insight into factors that may confer risk for these psychophysiological changes. The observed salience of sex-disaggregated analysis has important implications for future research. Despite decades of study, the pathways linking trauma, cortisol dysregulation, and pathology remain elusive; accounting for sex differences may contribute to resolving this quandary. Unraveling these mechanisms could inform prospective risk assessment, prevention efforts, and focused clinical trials.</p>","PeriodicalId":17519,"journal":{"name":"Journal of traumatic stress","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143999523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assessed whether such representations can also counteract negativity bias among individuals who experienced CM. Adults (N = 159) with and without a CM history completed a facial emotion recognition task. Prior to that, 53 participants with a CM history imagined an AF, and the rest (n = 49), as well as controls with no CM history (n = 57), imagined a neutral person. Participants in the AF group, d = 0.36, p < .001, but not the two other groups, demonstrated increased self-reported security in response to the imagination task. However, imagining an AF did not lead to stronger vagal responses to the imagination task than imagining a neutral person nor did it counteract negativity bias; compared to controls, individuals who experienced CM interpreted neutral expressions more often as contempt, βs .46-.48; ps = .016-.019, regardless of whether they imagined an AF or a neutral person. Thus, imagining an AF may be a helpful intervention to increase momentary feelings of security in individuals with a CM history.
