TSP Report Release: "A Critical Review of the Psychological Literature"

10 January 2017

It is with great pride that the Rutgers Center on Law, Inequality and Metropolitan Equity (CLiME) announces the release of our literature review for the Trauma, Schools and Poverty Project (TSP).

"A Critical Review of the Psychological Literature" provides a critical and comprehensive review of the empirical literature literature on the sequelae of childhood exposure to potentially traumatic events (PTEs), with special emphasis on low socioeconomic status populationsat disparate risk for exposure to PTEs across the lifespan.

This report is authored by CLiME Psychology Researcher Alexandra Margevich, and is essential for our TSP work, a multi-year effort to understand the relationships between structural inequality and the pervasive experience of complex psychological stress and trauma.
