“I Could Have Killed Him” Survivors' Descriptions of Their Counterfactual Thoughts After a Terrorist Attack
Many trauma survivors mentally create alternative scenarios to the factual past (i.e., “what could have happened”), referred to as counterfactual thoughts (CFT). However, to date, research on the phenomenology of post‐trauma CFT is sparse. We aimed to systematically explore the characteristics and content of CFT reported by young survivors of a terrorist attack. Approximately 8.5 years after the terrorist attack on Utøya island in 2011, 220 survi…
Early predictors of prolonged grief among bereaved trauma survivors 8.5 years after a terrorist attack
Young, bereaved survivors may be at particularly high risk of experiencing persistent grief reactions following the traumatic loss of a peer. Pending replication of our findings, professionals should focus on identifying bereaved who experience intense somatic symptoms early after a traumatic loss. Targeting these symptoms may alleviate the exacerbation of persistent grief reactions several years after a traumatic loss. (PsycInfo Database Record …
I Wish You Had Died on Utøya
We aimed to explore how many of the politically active, highly media-exposed, young survivors of the terrorist attack on Utøya island, Norway, have had personal experiences with hate speech and threats post-terror. Further, we aimed to examine the nature of these experiences, and the impact and consequences they have had for the directly affected. Approximately 8.5 years after the politically motivated terrorist attack on Utøya island in 2011, 28…
The longitudinal association between symptoms of posttraumatic stress and complicated grief
Findings suggest that targeting PTSD symptoms among trauma-exposed bereaved may hinder later development of complicated grief. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
Survivors Report Back
This study sought to systematically explore how young survivors of a terrorist attack perceive specific aspects of their contact with the media. We used data from a large-scale longitudinal study on health and coping among survivors of the terrorist attack at Utøya Island and their parents. Thirty to thirty-two months after the attack, 261 survivors (52.1 percent males, mean = 22.1, SD = 4.76) were asked to give a written description of their con…
A longitudinal study of psychological distress and exposure to trauma reminders after terrorism
Trauma reminders, especially auditory reminders, are prevalent and distressing for years after a terrorist attack. Exposure to reminders may be important not only in the development and maintenance of PTSD but also in a broader conceptualization of posttraumatic reactions and functioning. Which reminder survivors appraise as the worst may fluctuate over time. It is important to help survivors identify and cope with reminders. (PsycINFO Database R…
Adult Victimization in Female Survivors of Childhood Violence and Abuse
Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a well-established risk factor for adult victimization in women, but little is known about the importance of relationship to perpetrator and exposure to other violence types. This study interviewed 2,437 Norwegian women (response rate = 45.0%) about their experiences with violence. Logistic regression analyses were employed to estimate associations of multiple categories of childhood violence with adult victimization. …
A Prospective Study of the Potential Moderating Role of Social Support in Preventing Marginalization Among Individuals Exposed to Bullying and Abuse in Junior High School
Negative physical and psychological long-term consequences of abuse and bullying are well documented. It is reasonable to assume that abuse and bullying early in life also may have an impact on the ability to work and stay economically independent later in life, but such prospective studies are lacking. This study investigates the consequences of exposure to abuse and bullying in junior high school, as measured by receiving long-term social welfa…
