The most common psychological effect after a disaster is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The purpose of this study was to detect early PTSD in children who were victims of the flood disaster. This research applied a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. 61 child victims were included in the study. The research was conducted in Jeneponto Regency which is one of the worst flood locations in South Sulawesi during 2019. The instrument used is the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), which consists of 20 items of questions. The study shows that children who experience PTSD are equal to 39.3% and did not experience PTSD as much as 60,7%. The most common symptoms of PTSD that were identified in children was re-experiencing with an average of 86.7%. It can be concluded that Incidence of PTSD could increase in children since a month after the disaster by experiencing symptoms of re-experiencing, avoidance, negative alterations in mood cognition, and hyperarousal. Age, gender, and exposure are also at risk for developing PTSD in children. Therefore, it is recommended for health workers to provide immediate treatment to the child victims of the disaster to reduce trauma.
