✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The authors examine the relationship between three sources of social support (maternal, paternal, and peer) and the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study utilized data from the National Comorbidity Survey (NCS), a large (N = 5,877) nationally representative population survey. Persons with and without a lifetime history of PTSD and those with and without a history of trauma exposure were compared on levels of social support received prior to age 15. Persons with a history of PTSD reported that they received less maternal, paternal, and peer support as children than those without PTSD. Importantly, persons who developed PTSD after the age of 17 reported lower levels of early childhood support from their fathers.*This NCS was supported through the following grants awarded to Ronald Kessler: R01 MH/DA46376 and R01 MH49098 (NIMH), supplement to R01 MH/DA46376, (NIDA) and 90135190 (W.T. Grant Foundation).
