All datasets in the Archive have:

  • Data that were collected prospectively after acute trauma
  • In children or adolescents (ages 0 through 21)
  • Children identified based on trauma exposure, not based on development of post-trauma difficulties
  • Assessments of risk / protective factors and traumatic stress or related outcomes at a minimum of two time points
