Sensory modulation difficulties and complex PTSD among child abuse survivors by Nitzan Avigail Kidra, Lee Gafter, Tami Bar-Shalita, Yael Lahav

“…However, previous research has primarily explored the relationship between sensory modulation and PTSD, without examining the role of sensory modulation in both PTSD and CPTSD.Objective: This study aimed to bridge this knowledge gap by exploring (1) sensory modulation response patterns as a function of a history of CA; (2) the relationships between sensory modulation, PTSD, and disturbances in self-organization (DSO) in CA survivors; and (3) The role of sensory modulation response patterns in the likelihood of being diagnosed with PTSD or CPTSD.Method: An online survey was conducted among a convenience sample of Israeli female adults (n = 426), including 288 (67.6%) CA survivors and 138 (32.4%) participants without a history of CA. …”
