Regression coefficients are presented for an increase of one standard deviation (SD) for continuous variables (resilience; SD = 6.09, social support; SD = 5.93, perceived organizational support; SD = 11.65). 12-month responders had a mean score of 15.28 ± 12.04 on the PCL-5 scale, n = 397. Type of employment and sex were considered in the stepwise but not selected. The final model is therefore the one above
