Abstract
Using the continuous traumatic stress type III paradigm, the current study aimed to explore the proliferation of previous and concurrent continuous type III traumas to COVID-19 stressors. In two samples from the USA (N = 745) and the Syrian internally displaced (N = 891), we used COVID-19 stressors and cumulative trauma measures. Childhood adversities and intersected discrimination predicted higher COVID-19 stressors in the American sample. Intergroup conflict, intersected discrimination, and chronic, life-threatening health conditions predicted higher COVID-19 stressors in the Syrian sample. Cumulative trauma in both samples predicted higher COVID-19 stressors and accounted for slightly higher variance. The conceptual and clinical implications were discussed.
