“…Negative changes are well-known, such as development of psychopathology, emotional distress, loss, hardship, and inconvenience. Mental health research on the 9/11 attacks, such as disaster mental health research in general, has largely focused on life changes related to PTSD and other psychopathology (Ayvaci et al, 2019; Galea et al, 2005; Goldmann & Galea, 2014; Johnson et al, 2017; Joseph et al, 1993; Neria et al, 2008; Norris et al, 2002; North, 2017; North, Barney, et al, 2015; North, Pollio, et al, 2015; Tang, 2006; Vázquez et al, 2005). Although research has indicated that although most individuals do not develop psychiatric illness, even after intense exposure to severe disasters, negative emotions and psychological distress are ubiquitous (Goldmann & Galea, 2014; Norris et al, 2002; North, 2017, p. 201; North et al, 1999; Schlenger et al, 2002; Schuster et al, 2001; Silver et al, 2002).…”
