This research aims to reveal the relationship of quarantine to post-traumatic anxiety in children, from the viewpoint of their parents, By conducting an applied study on a selected sample of (400) children from Baghdad governorate, who are less than seven years old. The researcher used the descriptive method, being the closest to discovering the relationship between the research variables, as well as using the statistical application (SPSS) in the practical side of the research to analyze the questionnaire data prepared by the researcher for the purpose of answering it by the families of the children, the research sample. The post-traumatic anxiety scale prepared by the researcher included (18) questions about the effects caused by the quarantine imposed by the public authorities in Iraq to limit the spread of the new Corona virus on the mental health of the children studied, As well as finding statistically significant differences in post-traumatic anxiety among children, the research sample, according to the gender variable (male - female), if any. The researcher concluded that the research sample children suffer from post-traumatic anxiety as a result of the quarantine imposed to limit the spread of the new Corona virus, from the point of view of their parents. and the researcher also concluded that there are no statistically significant differences between the children studied according to the variable (Gender) as a result of their exposure to trauma.

The local population of the upper Theresian Valley owes its livelihood almost exclusively to the forest. Natural risks and institutional problems are hindering development. In times of change, such as those that the Ukraine is going through at present, the forest and natural resources in general can ensure the survival of the rural population. From the authors' point of view the communities in the upper Theresian Valley and similar areas should be actively engaged in the management of the forest, and, in the first instance, wood and forest should benefit the local populations. Corruption should be combated at its origin on the structural level. The public at large must have access to transparent information. Foreign investors should be independently monitored. The authors suggest that access to and the relationship of the local population with their natural resources be taken into account as an additional priority criterion for sustainability.

BackgroundNeuroticism has been consistently correlated with the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) response to traumatic events. Interpretation of these findings is limited by the retrospective nature of these findings: neuroticism was measured after the trauma had occurred. The prospective association of neuroticism with PTSD has not been examined (the relationship of neuroticism with PTSD symptoms was examined in a few prospective studies). We evaluate prospectively the relationship of neuroticism, measured at baseline, with the cumulative occurrence of PTSD during the subsequent 10 years, using data from a longitudinal epidemiological study of young adults.MethodA sample of 1007 young adults randomly selected from the membership of a large health maintenance organization in southeast Michigan was assessed at baseline and followed up at 3, 5 and 10 years later. We conducted a series of multinomial logistic regressions to estimate the relative risk (RR) of exposure to trauma and PTSD by neuroticism at baseline, adjusting for history of major depression (n = 990).ResultsDuring the 10-year follow-up, 50.2% of the sample experienced traumatic events and 5.2% developed PTSD. Neuroticism score at baseline increased significantly the RR of PTSD response to trauma. Additional analysis revealed that, among persons with history of major depression at baseline, RR for PTSD associated with neuroticism was equal to the null value of 1, but was increased significantly among those with no history of major depression.ConclusionsThe results confirm the role of neuroticism as diathesis in the PTSD response to traumatic experiences.

This paper deals with the relationship between urban residual spaces and fragmentation urbanism, through the triad: functionality, visibility and technical density. Given that the functionality and the urban visibility present in the triad are inherent to the concept of residual space, the third item — technical density — can be considered as a booster of these spaces. This study also considers the possibility of functionality, visibility and technical density being applied by the public authorities, as actions that work the residual spaces and the fragmentation urbanism. This paper does not gleam to generate assertive responses to the relationship of the triad as something positive or negative for residual spaces. Instead, it intends to open the way for the discussion about this topic in the academic and professional spheres.

An increased incidence of childhood physical and sexual abuse has previously been demonstrated in patients with multiple personalities. This disorder in women is also associated with an increased incidence of forcible rape during adolescence and adulthood by strangers or acquaintances. In a series of 17 women with multiple personality, 6 had been raped. A control group of non-dissociative disorder patients matched for age and sex yielded no instances of forcible rape. This high incidence of rape is thought to be related to the masochistic character traits which are common in multiple personality. The relationship of multiple personality and rape to post-traumatic stress disorder is explored. Treatment in group and individual therapy in which education and prevention were emphasized is described.
