1.Discuss some of the most prevalent predictors of PTSD in children according to the textbook (Landolt et al., 2017).I will attach the book for your perusal.

    Be thorough and just make sure to write more than just a few sentences.

Choose one predictor that you are interested in and use two peer reviewed articles that you have researched to describe and analyze the implications of that predictor.

    Be thorough, this should be an in depth explanation focusing on one specific predictor.

2.Read one article a classmate referenced and further discuss the impact of the article and your analysis of the predictor they chose to describe.The article is as the following:
Pina, A. A., Villalta, I. K., Ortiz, C. D., Gottschall, A. C., Costa, N. M., & Weems, C. F. (2008). Social Support, Discrimination, and Coping as Predictors of Post traumatic Stress Reactions in Youth Survivors of Hurricane Katrina [Abstract]. Journal of Clinical Child & Adolescent Psychology, 37(3), 564-574. doi:10.1080/15374410802148228.

3.Read the textbook pages (71-74) outlining different assessment.Individually, I would like you to choose one of these trauma assessment instruments that you found most interesting and why you chose to discuss about it.I am attaching the textbook for your perusal.This should only be about few sentences.
