Abstract
Based on previous studies reporting an association between high image control and low posttraumatic symptoms in adults exposed to a traumatic event, this study explored whether a high capacity for image control by children may serve as protective factor against the long-term effect of trauma. The sample consisted of 39 children displaced due to the destruction of their homes after the missile attack on Tel-Aviv during the Gulf War. Analysis confirmed the hypothesis that low scores on the Test of Visual Image Control were associated with specific posttraumatic symptoms but not with general ones.
