The effect of genocidal trauma and having children on mental health symptoms in females
Description
Two-way ANOVA indicates that female civilians with genocidal trauma have higher rates of moral injury, PTSD, depression, and anxiety than those whose grandparents did not experience the Holodomor and the Holocaust. There are no significant interactions between previous genocidal trauma in family history and having children in relation to moral injury and associated mental health symptoms. The results of our study indicate a significant main effect of having children as an independent variable on depression in females without a family history of genocidal trauma.The results of linear multiple regression indicate that previous genocidal trauma of the Holodomor and the Holocaust is a significant predictor of moral injury in civilian females during the Russia-Ukraine war.
