“…Therefore, the longer period of time produces the highest spontaneous remission rates and the lowest PTSD prevalence. In terms of measures used, the CIDI, used in our study, provides the categorical diagnosis of mental disorders based on DSM-IV, while other studies used different PTSD or depression symptom scales [5,21,24,29,34,36,49]. Prevalence varies according to the extent of exposure.…”

“…Indeed, a meta-analysis has shown that the most powerful predictor of PTSD is a prior history of PTSD [19] and that a history of other psychiatric disorders is another of the most powerful risk factors in predicting PTSD [20]. Nevertheless, the great majority of studies focusing on risk factors for mental disorders after disasters have not assessed preexisting psychiatric problems [5,12,21–36]. In this study, we have therefore tried to focus on the effects of a history of PTSD and other mental disorders on post-disaster outcomes and explaining the associations of other predictors with these outcomes using data from a community epidemiological survey that was already on going in the Murcia region of Spain at the time of the Lorca earthquake [37].…”

AimsTo describe the prevalence and severity of mental disorders and to examine differences in risk among those with and without a lifetime history prior to a moderate magnitude earthquake that took place in Lorca (Murcia, Spain) at roughly the mid-point (on May 11, 2011) of the time interval in which a regional epidemiological survey was already being carried out (June 2010 –May 2012).MethodsThe PEGASUS-Murcia project is a cross-sectional face-to-face interview survey of a representative sample of non-institutionalized adults in Murcia. Main outcome measures are prevalence and severity of anxiety, mood, impulse and substance disorders in the 12 months previous to the survey, assessed using the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI 3.0). Sociodemographic variables, prior history of any mental disorder and earthquake-related stressors were entered as independent variables in a logistic regression analysis.FindingsA total number of 412 participants (response rate: 71%) were interviewed. Significant differences in 12-month prevalence of mental disorders were found in Lorca compared to the rest of Murcia for any (12.8% vs 16.8%), PTSD (3.6% vs 0.5%) and other anxiety disorders (5.3% vs 9.2%) (p≤ 0.05 for all). No differences were found for 12-month prevalence of any mood or any substance disorder. The two major predictors for developing a 12-month post-earthquake mental disorder were a prior mental disorder and the level of exposure. Other risk factors included female sex and low-average income.ConclusionsPTSD and other mental disorders are commonly associated with earthquake disasters. Prior mental disorders and the level of exposure to the earthquakes are the most important for the development of a consequent mental disorder and this recognition may help to identify those individuals that may most benefit from specific therapeutic intervention.

“…The survey included a set of questions for the sociodemographic characterization of the sample, in accordance with the formats used in Chile's 2010 postearthquake survey. 7,15 In order to measure resiliency in the sample, a Spanishvalidated version of the resilience scale (RS-14) was used. 16,17 The scale was modified to specifically refer to the earthquakes that occurred in Mexico.…”

“…Several studies reveal that earthquakes are stressful events for the affected communities and have great psychosocial impact. [6][7][8][9] However, not all people respond to the stress generated by a disaster in the same manner. 10 Some people face the adverse situations presented after an earthquake without negative effects in their psychosocial functioning.…”

Objective:To describe social participation strategies and resilience in the people affected by the 2017 earthquakes in Mexico.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out with 1504 participants from Mexico City, State of Mexico, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Puebla, and Morelos in November and December 2017. A nonprobabilistic convenience sampling method was used to recruit voluntary participants who met the inclusion criteria: age 18 or over and residents in damaged states at the time of the earthquakes. Postearthquake social participation strategies were assessed with the formats used in the postearthquake Chilean survey in 2010. The Spanish-validated version of the resilience scale RS-14 was applied for measuring resilience in the Mexican population.Results:The most frequent social participation strategies were related to emotional support and aid supplying water, food, and clothing. The highest resilience was observed in the state of Oaxaca and in Mexico City. Men, people age 40 or over, and people who defined themselves as indigenous were the most resilient.Conclusions:Factors related to resilience were male gender, age over 40, did not participate in activities of help to the community, no household damage, and belonging to an indigenous community.

“…6 La literatura también describe que los efectos psicosociales de los desastres pueden resultar debilitantes para los individuos. 7,9 Ante una situación de desastre las personas podrán retornar a sus actividades cotidianas con un funcionamiento normal, 10,11 o experimentarán diferentes respuestas psicosociales, 12,13 ya que los desastres pueden constituirse en "una pesada carga sobre la salud mental de las personas involucradas, la mayoría de las cuales viven en lugares donde la capacidad para afrontar esos problemas puede verse muy limitada". 14 Aunque actualmente existen guías clínicas para el manejo de las víctimas de desastres y numerosas publicaciones desarrolladas bajo la perspectiva de investigación cuantitativa, 15 aún es escasa la investigación llevada a cabo desde esta perspectiva, en consecuencia el presente estudio busca complementar con aportes cualitativos a una problemática compleja como es el estudio de los desastres.…”

En Tartagal (Argentina) el 9 de febrero de 2009 un alud de agua, lodo y árboles irrumpió hacia la ciudad provocando tres muertos, una decena de desaparecidos y más de mil evacuados. El objetivo del trabajo que presentamos aquí fue analizar las percepciones y vivencias de los sujetos con respecto el alud, y las respuestas psicosociales frente a la situación de desastre. Se realizó un trabajo de naturaleza cualitativa para indagar las percepciones y vivencias de los sujetos por medio de 23 entrevistas en profundidad aplicadas en el año 2013. La información se analizó a través de la Teoría Fundamentada. En los resultados emergen las categorías teóricas relacionadas con la percepción del desastre y de los efectos del alud, y las respuestas psicosociales desplegadas a partir del desastre. El alud fue significado como un desastre a partir de la destrucción, las muertes y las pérdidas que sufrieron las personas y las familias. Entre sus efectos se encontraron una serie de respuestas psicosociales entre las que sobresalieron la interrupción de las vivencias de continuidad y la pérdida de la vivienda y bienes materiales. Se concluye que las respuestas psicosociales después del desastre dependieron de una combinación de factores de riesgo y resiliencia.
