Plus de trois canadiens sur quatre ont vécu au moins un événement potentiellement traumatisant au cours de leur vie et certains d’entre eux ont développé un État de stress post-traumatique (ÉSPT) suite à celui-ci. Cette conférence distinguera ce qu’est un événement « stressant » versus « traumatique", présentera les plus récents critères diagnostiques selon le DSM-5 et expliquera les facteurs pouvant contribuer à protéger ou à mettre à risque les individus exposés à des événements « traumatiques ». Enfin, les comportements de soutien à favoriser et à éviter pour les proches seront exposés et discutés avec l’auditoire.

• challenge: a perception of life events as challenging (not threatening) and as
an opportunity to test themselves
• Other studies have found that while commitment and control are associated
