The fear that remains: Associations between trauma, related psychopathology, and fear-potentiated startle in youth resettled as refugees
Overview
This study investigates the relationship between trauma, psychopathology, and fear-potentiated startle (FPS) in 71 Syrian youth resettled as refugees. The research compares FPS responses during conditioning and extinction phases between youth with and without probable PTSD symptoms. Findings indicate that while fear conditioning was not associated with symptoms, a deficit in fear extinction learning distinguished the PTSD group from the non-PTSD group. The authors suggest these results support the use of trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy based on extinction learning principles for this population.
