Authors describe versions of comorbidity and discover how particular PTSD and substance use indicators are functionally relating to one another. moreover, they recommend overview ways and perform directions to facilitate right analysis and therapy. fairly precious are descriptions of numerous new remedy techniques which were built particularly for PTSD-SUD, together with cognitive-behavioral and publicity treatment. this is often the 1st ebook to judge and synthesize the 2 fields of PTSD and substance use illness learn and remedy. This quantity is crucial for researchers and clinicians looking a whole figuring out of the etiology, review, and remedy of this demanding twin analysis.

Example text
For example, if a common genetic mechanism were operative in accounting for SUD-PTSD comorbidity, then probands with pure PTSD should have family members at risk for pure PTSD, combined (cornorbid) SUD-PTSD, and pure SUD (by means of cross-transmission). Similarly, probands with pure SUD should have family members at risk for pure SUD, combined SUD-PTSD, and pure (crosstransmitted) PTSD. In contrast, if PTSD causes SUDs, then familial transmission studies would reveal increased risk of both pure PTSD and combined SUD-PTSD (comorbid form) in the families of PTSD probands but no increased risk for pure SUDs in the families of such probands.
Moreover, comparison groups were not necessarily matched for combat exposure with the PTSD veterans group. T o control for this possible limitation, Davidson et al. (1989) performed a subsequent reanalysis of their data on only the PTSD and control cases who had been exposed to combat. Combat-exposed PTSD probands demonstrated greater familial morbidity of anxiety disorders only (and not SUDs) relative to a combat-exposed control group that was heterogeneous with respect to psychiatric diagnosis (including SUDs).
By increasing risk of exposure to traumatic events or by inducing a state in which PTSD is more likely to develop following trauma exposure), then the onset of the SUD must precede the development of the PTSD. , through self-medication), then the onset of PTSD must precede the development of the SUD. In this section we review studies that have examined the degree to which the temporality criterion is met with respect to the potential causal relationship between PTSD and SUDs. Research on the temporal relations between PTSD and SUDs has generally involved two types of methodologies: (a) those using retrospective self-report methods versus (b) those using longitudinal, prospective methods.
