abstract="OBJECTIVE: To examine negative cognitions underlying both posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression following trauma.   METHOD: A mixed-gender motor vehicle accident (N = 297, Mage  = 43.49 years) sample and a female intimate partner violence (N = 242, Mage  = 36.95 years) sample was cross-sectionally studied at research clinics of two universities.   RESULTS: When diagnostic groups (PTSD+/-, depression+/-) were studied, no significant interactions were noted for any of the three forms of negative cognitions (negative thoughts about the self, negative thoughts about the world, and self-blame) in either sample. When continuous ratings of PTSD and depression were studied, the results showed that negative thoughts about the self were linked to both PTSD and depression.   CONCLUSION: Findings suggest that it may be beneficial to target negative thoughts about the self when treating PTSD and depression together.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
