Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: This study aims to summarize the existing literature on factors associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among parents of children with a neurodevelopmental disability. Methods: A systematic search of three databases was conducted using predefined criteria. Studies were screened for eligibility by title/abstract, followed by full-text review. Data was extracted to capture key information including study characteristics, participant demographics, and factors associated with PTSD. A narrative thematic analysis was employed to identify and categorize findings. Heterogeneity across studies precluded a meta-analysis, thus a narrative review was conducted. Results: From a pool of 15,852 studies, six articles published between 2002 and 2023 were included. Among the factors studied, lower levels of social support, increased caregiving demands, and parent’s history of depression were most frequently associated with elevated PTSD scores. Conclusion: This study offers insights into the factors associated with caregiver PTSD, highlighting the need for future research.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
