Design
A pre-intervention/ post-intervention/ follow up control group
design with clustered random allocation of participants to
groups will be used.
H1: The intervention group will show a greater pre-post increase in trauma
knowledge (as measured by a trauma knowledge test).
H2: The intervention group will report a greater pre-post increase in levels of
perceived social support & satisfaction (as measured by the SSQSR).
H3: The intervention group will report a greater pre-post increase in levels of
adaptive coping (as measured by the COPE total score).
H4: The intervention group will show less increase, or decrease in pathology (as
measured by the PCL-C and DASS-21).
H4: The intervention group will show lower levels of problematic alcohol use (as
measured by the AUDIT).
H5: Any changes in the intervention group will be maintained at 6-month follow-
up.
H6: Any changes in the intervention group will be maintained at 12-month
follow-up.
All baseline control data has been collected, with the first
round of recruits currently completing their 12-month follow
up measures.
The intervention school is currently in training, with 1 hour
of the program to be delivered.
Final follow-up data will be available from November 2014.
