- Reposted by Sinha Engel🚨Our new systematic review identifies diversity data gaps in PTSD research. 🔹 Middle-aged, well-educated, and non-marginalized groups were overrepresented. - Although marginalized groups and those with lower SES are at increased risk for PTSD. tinyurl.com/4vrey5mv

- Late to the party, but couldn’t miss to congratulate @shaering.bsky.social on very successfully defending her PhD thesis and to shortly summarize her excellent work here. Stephanie’s thesis is a comprehensive overview of the sex and gender data gap in psychotraumatology, absolutely worth a read.
- In her first paper, Stephanie systematically quantifies the sex and gender data gap in prospective studies on PTSD development. Although women have an increased PTSD risk from 1 month up to 5 years posttrauma, they are underrepresented in research doi.org/10.1037/abn0...
- Her second paper is based on the AURORA study. Stephanie introduces a systematic framework of sex- and gender-related pathways to PTSD and identifies risk factors with increased prevalence/ severity in women (e.g. sexual assault, anxiety sensitivity). doi.org/10.1038/s442...

- It was such an honor to chair the symposium on reproductive mental disorders at #DPK2025 yesterday. We brought together perspectives from science, practitioners and experts by experience. So thankful for the valuable contributions.
- Next, looking forward to attending the symposium on sex(hormones), gender and mental health online.
- Reposted by Sinha EngelJoin our symposium on socio-affective mechanisms and trauma: I‘ll share some preliminary results from our new fMRI study on the influence of empathy on witnessed trauma 🧠🎉: today, 1pm, Room II (sorry only in German) @dpk-kongress.bsky.social
- Menstrual cycle research lunch #DPK2025 @celinebencker.bsky.social @sibelnayman.bsky.social Great to experience how this group of researchers is growing and connecting
- Congratulations Hannah Klusmann on the DGVT award and thanks for inviting @sibelnayman.bsky.social and me to join you for the symposium on the menstrual cycle and mental health
- Daily depressive symptom ratings across the menstrual cycle show individual differences in cyclicity and differential patterns for different symptoms, highlighting the need for individualization in assessment and treatment. Happy to share our new paper led by Hannah Klusmann. doi.org/10.1186/s129...
- Reposted by Sinha EngelVery nice! @mathiasharrer.bsky.social et al.'s metapsy now has a data base of PTSD studies: www.metapsy.org/database/ptsd
- I’m very happy to share the preprint of our most recent meta-analysis on sex/gender differences in PTSD risk factors. osf.io/preprints/ps... Most importantly, our results suggest that women’s increased risk for PTSD is due to their higher immediate psychological stress responses to trauma.
- Congratulations to @shaering.bsky.social and Caroline Meyer who led this huge effort.

- Reposted by Sinha Engel32% of Black adults worry every day or almost every day that they might be threatened or attacked because of their race or ethnicity. So do 21% of Asian adults & 14% of Hispanic adults. Many have changed their daily schedules and routines because of these threats. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...
