CC 670 - Traumatic Stess: Causes, Contexts, and Effects


This course provides an overview of trauma and its multi-level effects on development and physiology, interpersonal relationships, family systems and societies. A conceptual framework of evolving perspectives of traumatic stress, as well as education about the ethnocultural milieu is provided. Numerous sources of trauma, including child maltreatment, domestic violence, sexual assault, terrorism, armed conflict, and natural disasters are explored. Risk and protective factors are considered within the context of local, national and international efforts to reduce or respond to crises and other traumatic events, from both logistical and systems perspectives.  (3 credits)
