Abstract
⺠Pediatric PTSD is a seriously disabling condition. ⺠Little research is available on a gold standard approach to treatment or treatment outcomes. ⺠This study attempts to address these issues using a meta-analysis of available published data. ⺠Meta-analysis allows us to synthesize quantitative results from multiple studies of cognitive behavioral therapy for pediatric PTSD in order to estimate the overall effectiveness of this modality in treating this condition. ⺠Cognitive-behavioral treatment has benefits for pediatric PTSD, and more studies are warranted using comparable outcome measures and/or similar methodology.
