| Abstract: | The impact of diverse traumas on world views was assessed with a community sample (N = 3,617) interviewed in 1986 and 1989. Four types of world views were examined including fatalism, justice, vulnerability, and self-view. Types of trauma included the death of a spouse, parent, or child, job loss, life-threatening illness, and physical assault. Overall, fatalism and justice were not greatly affected by trauma. Perceptions of vulnerability and self-view were significantly altered for all subjects who had experienced any type of trauma. |
