Posttraumatic stress disorder is one of the most common and often prolonged consequences of childhood maltreatment. In this article the authors consider theories of trauma continuity, with emphasis on a relational path to maladjustment that links childhood maltreatment to elevated trauma symptomatology and intimate victimization in adolescent dating relationships.
