“…Recent research on disclosure in PTSD incorporated methodological advancements of longitudinal as well as dyadic assessments. Pielmaier, Milek, Nussbeck, Walder, and Maercker ( 2013 ) studied patients and their significant others after severe traumatic brain injury at 3, 6, and 12 months post-injury. They measured three aspects of dysfunctional disclosure tendencies (reluctance to talk, urge to talk, emotional overreactions) based on previous research (Mueller, Mörgeli, & Maercker, 2008 ).…”

“…Therefore, one cannot rule out the possibility that some of the PTS symptoms covary with the assessment of sTBI symptoms. However, apart from the statistical control by using MLM, evaluations of PTS and TBI symptoms were conducted by licensed clinical (neuro-)psychologists who peer reviewed each other's assessments in cases of ambivalence (yielding a descriptive measure of interrater reliability) (38). Notably, findings show that primary outcomes of TBI and PTSD are both relevant for understanding the biopsychosocial sequelae of sTBI (23,34,76).…”

“…Mean scores were calculated to represent the relative's PTS symptoms severity. The German version of IES-R used in this study showed good psychometric properties (Maercker & Schutzwohl, 1998;Pielmaier et al, 2013).…”

“…Severe Traumatic brain injury inherently involves the experience of a life-threatening trauma, which may be accompanied by a posttraumatic reaction among patients as well as close relatives (e.g., Campbell et al, 2009;Combs et al, 2015). More than 50% of relatives suffer from clinically relevant Posttraumatic stress (PTS) symptoms (Bosma et al, 2018;Pielmaier, Milek, Nussbeck, Walder, & Maercker, 2013) and research on secondary traumatization reveals the "contagious" effects of PTSD for close relatives (e.g., Ben Arzi, Solomon, & Dekel, 2000). That is, living with a person who suffers from PTSD may have a spillover effect on close relatives' PTS symptoms (e.g., Levin, Bachem, & Solomon, 2017;Levin, Greene, & Solomon, 2016).…”
