This contributed volume examines the intersection of trauma and
disaster behavioral health from a lifespan perspective, filling a
critical gap in the literature on disaster mental health research.
In the chapters, the contributors evaluate behavioral data of
adults exposed to various environmental events in both the United
States (i.e., the 2017 Hurricanes Irma in Florida and Harvey in
Houston) and abroad (i.e., missile fire in the 2014 Israel-Gaza
conflict). Contributors also suggest future directions, practices,
and policies for trauma and disaster response. The three parts of
the book provide an overview of disaster behavioral health across
the lifespan, propose practical applications of research theories
to psychosocial problems resulting from disasters and trauma, and
evaluate disaster and trauma interventions from a macro-level
perspective. Topics explored among the chapters include:
Integrating Trauma-Informed Principles into Disaster Behavioral
Health Targeting Older Adults Cultural Competence and Disaster
Mental Health When Disasters Strike: Navigating the Challenges of
"Sudden Science" Frameworks of Recovery: Health Caught at the
Intersection of Housing, Education, and Employment Opportunities
After Hurricane Katrina Substance Use Issues and Behavioral Health
After a Disaster Psychosocial Recovery After Natural Disaster:
International Advocacy, Policy, and Recommendations The
Intersection of Trauma and Disaster Behavioral Health is a vital
resource for researchers whose expertise covers the domains of
trauma, health and wellness, and natural and technological
disasters. The book also is a useful supplement to graduate courses
in psychology, sociology, social work, disaster science, human
ecology, and public health.
