Table 2.

Mean raw scores (M) and standard deviations (SD) of ITIA conceptualized as resilience factor among children (n= 80) divided into subgroups with children in the traumatized parents group without PTSD-related symptoms (n = 9), children in the traumatized parents with PTSD-related symptoms (n = 31), and children of non-traumatized parents (n = 40).

ITIA variables Traumatized Non-PTSD- related symptom A Traumatized PTSD-related symptoms B Non-Traumatized C Post- hoc test p < 0.01

Note*: A = Children without PTSD-related symptoms in the traumatized parents group;

B = Children with PTSD-related symptoms in the traumatized parents group;

C = Children in the non-traumatized parents group.

Note**: The ITIA's sub-scale "Relation to family" C > A+B, t-value 1.9; p =< 0.06 also the ITIA's "Total score" C > A+B, t-value 2.1; p < 0.05
