Note: F, family intervention was provided if needed; G, group sessions; HMHS, health or mental health site; I, individual sessions; MHP, mental health professional; NS, not specified; NA, not applicable; PA, parent involved in assessment; PH, parent involved in child’s intervention homework; PI, parent involved in intervention; TSP, teacher and/or other school personal; aThe investigators were provided with a database of contact information of potential study participants 6 mo after the September 11 attack, but they did not specify the actual time of delivery of the intervention; bWhen the date for the start and end of the intervention were reported, timing was computed as the mean time interval between the time the investigators began to administer the intervention and when they completed intervention administration which may have varied for individual participants or for groups of participants; cThis is the timing of the second phase of the study. The first phase started 5 mo before Hurricane Katrina and was interrupted by the disaster while the second phase started 6 mo after the hurricane and was implemented over a period of 33 mo; dInformation about the family intervention in the study by Goenjian and colleagues25 was obtained from the later study by the same group.26
