Abstract
Objective. We set out to investigate the association between negative trauma-related
cognitions, emotional regulation strategies, and attachment style and complex posttraumatic stress disorder (CPTSD). As the evidence regarding the treatment of CPTSD is
emerging, investigating psychological factors that are associated with CPTSD can inform
the adaptation or the development of effective interventions for CPTSD.
Method. A cross-sectional design was employed. Measures of CPTSD, negative traumarelated cognitions, emotion regulation strategies, and attachment style were completed
by a British clinical sample of trauma-exposed patients (N = 171). Logistic regression
analysis was used to assess the predictive utility of these psychological factors on diagnosis
of CPTSD as compared to PTSD.
Results. It was found that the most important factor in the diagnosis of CPTSD was
negative trauma-related cognitions about the self, followed by attachment anxiety, and
expressive suppression.
