Abstract

Abstract: As part of an international study examining student victimization (by both peers and educators) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptomatology, 154 Irish university students completed the ‘Student Alienation and Trauma Scale–Revised’. This examined retrospective accounts of negative experiences in school, identified worst school experiences, and assessed whether an individual developed PTSD symptomatology. Items regarding verbal/relational aggression were reported for both the negative experiences and the worst experience. Whilst 3.1% of males and 16.3% of females reported clinically significant PTSD resulting from their worst school experience, a further 3.1% of males and 3.1% of females were in the ‘at risk’ range. Estrés, trauma y victimización escolar en Irlanda: un informe retrospectivo. Resumen: Como parte de un estudio internacional que analiza la victimización en escolares (por parte de otros iguales y de educadores) y la sintomatología del trastorno por estrés postraumático (TEPT), 154 alumnos universitarios completaron la “Escala revisada sobre alienación y trauma en estudiantes”. Esta prueba proporciona un informe retrospectivo sobre experiencias negativas en la escuela, identifica las peores experiencias escolares y evalúa si quien responde desarrolló sintomatología asociada a TEPT. Los items relacionados con agresión verbal y relacional aparecieron vinculados tanto a experiencias negativas como a las peores experiencias escolares. El 3.1% de los hombres y el 16.3% de las mujeres presentaban TEPT de manera clínicamente significativa como resultado de su peor experiencia en la escuela. El 3.1% de los hombres y el 3.1% de las mujeres estaban dentro de una situación de riesgo.
