Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study has two aims. The first is to understand more of what may be typical health trajectories after mass trauma for children and adults and what predicts these trajectories. The second is to understand what may be effective early interventions to prevent long-term health and psychosocial problems for youth (6-19). Participants are recruited from an outreach program implemented after a landslide killed 11 persons and destroyed 33 houses in Gjerdrum in Norway. One third of the inhabitants were evacuated. All evacuated are contacted and screened for trauma related difficulties. Those who have significant post-trauma reactions are offered trauma focused interventions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Two short step-wise interventions are developed for this study as an early intervention after mass trauma based on components from TF-CBT to test the relative importance of dosage and the sequencing of components.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

TF-CBT-Skills

Step 1: 4-5 sessions with stabilization/skill building Step 2: 4-5 sessions with narrative and cognitive processing

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

TF-CBT-Short

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants receive either 4-5 sessions of TF-CBT-Skills or TF-CBT-Narr. If the participant still has significant PTSS they are provided with step two which is the components provided in the arm they did not receive.

TF-CBT-Narr

Step 1: 4-5 sessions with narrative and cognitive processing Step 2: 4-5 sessions with stabilization/skill building

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

TF-CBT-Short

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants receive either 4-5 sessions of TF-CBT-Skills or TF-CBT-Narr. If the participant still has significant PTSS they are provided with step two which is the components provided in the arm they did not receive.
