After the Crash: Psychological Assessment and Treatment of Survivors of Motor Vehicle Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) have been found to be the single leading cause of posttraumatic stress disorder in the general population. They are the most frequent, directly experienced trauma for men and the second most frequent trauma for women. This second edition, complete with charts, guides, case studies, and clinical advice, provides updates on the Albany MVA Project. It should appeal to a broad audience of practitioners, researchers, and physicians, attorneys who handle MVA survivor cases, and those interested in public safety issues.
