Open AccessStephanie Y Wells, Kristen H Walter et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2021
Given that reductions in overall negative cognitions are associated with lower clinician-administered PTSD scores 6 months after PE, clinicians could consider monitoring changes in these cognitions over the course of treatment. RT is not a recommended treatment approach to target NPCs in older adults with PTSD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)

Improving assessment of race, ethnicity, and culture to further veteran PTSD research
Jane Onoye, Jane M Onoye et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2016
