Abstract
Refugees are at risk of experiencing emotional distress due to exposure to traumatic events. Less is known about the etiological trajectories of these mental health symptoms. This study conducted secondary data analyses from a longitudinal RCT testing an intervention among 290 refugees from 148 households. The primary purpose of the current study was to identify distinct longitudinal subgroup trajectories based on participant PTSD severity among refugees as well as factors influencing latent class group membership.
