Abstract

Thirty participants with post-traumatic stress (PTS) symptoms and 30 healthy controls completed the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Symptom Scale (PSS-SR) and the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (AASP). Participants with PTS symptoms vacillated between sensory sensitivity, sensation avoiding, and low registration. Sensation avoiding and low registration correlated with intrusive thoughts related to PTS. Discriminant Analysis classified 73% of the study group and 80% of the controls. PTS may be related to hypersensitivity and low registration. Further studies about the sensory profile of people with PTS symptoms may contribute to research and optimize evaluation and intervention for people with PTSD.

Engel-Yeger et al. (2013) identified sensory hypersensitivity patterns among individuals with PTSD symptoms, and hypothesized that these patterns may be typically driven by fear and negative affect, where sensory hypersensitivity and stress can manifest as enhanced activity in brain structures linked to hyperemotionality and impulsivity.

Individuals with PTSD can be susceptible to hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity sensory processing patterns.
“Here, individuals with PTSD can be susceptible to hypersensitivity (Engel-Yeger et al., 2013) and hyposensitivity sensory processing patterns that may contribute to affect dysregulation, and in turn, can perpetuate impulsive, defensive behaviors, as well as emotional blunting freezing behaviors in the PTSD dissociative subtype.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
