Abstract
We used data from the Advancing Understanding of Recovery after Trauma (AURORA) study to investigate prospective links between five factor model and impulsive personality traits and PTSD symptoms at baseline (N = 2943), three-months post-trauma (N = 2400), and one-year post-trauma (N = 1591) in individuals recruited from emergency departments within 72 h of trauma exposure. Neuroticism and Negative Urgency bore the largest relations (rs > 0.30) to nearly all individual PTSD symptoms and symptom total at all time points. Neuroticism was an incremental predictor of every PTSD symptom at each time point. Low Agreeableness and low Conscientiousness were incremental predictors of several PTSD symptoms. These findings highlight personality assessment as an efficient, effective screening tool for PTSD risk.
