Associations between number of hurricane-related stressors and 12-month H-SED and NH-SEDa,b

H-SED NH-SED
OR (95% CI) χ21 (p-value) OR (95% CI) χ21 (p-value)

0 Stressors 1.0 -- 1.0 --
1 Stressor 14.5* (1.7–122.7) 6.1 (.014) 1.2 (0.3–4.4) 0.1 (.820)
2 Stressors 51.9* (6.7–404.3) 14.3 (<.001) 1.9 (0.4–8.6) 0.7 (.390)
3 Stressors 51.3* (6.4–413.1) 13.7 (<.001) 1.9 (0.5–6.9) 0.9 (.350)
4 Stressors 37.3* (4.4–317.9) 11.0 (<.001) 3.2 (0.8–12.8) 2.6 (.110)
5 Stressors 99.7* (12.6–787.5) 19.1 (<.001) 3.0 (0.8–12.2) 2.4 (.120)

Abbreviations: H-SED, hurricane-attributable SED; NH-SED, SED unrelated to hurricane

a

Estimates of SED were based on the SDQ. See the “Methods” section for details.

b

Respondents in New Orleans metro and other areas were combined due to the small sample size associated with exposure to 0 stressors; model controls for pre-hurricane location.

*

Significant at the .05 level, two-sided test.
