We found immigrants to Denmark have higher PTSD risk after traumatic exposures than native-born Danes. This could be due to the combined effect of adverse experiences before, peri-, and/or after migration. [3/6].

In our new study, we looked at psychopathology risk following traumatic events among immigrants and native-born populations in Denmark. via @sppejournal [2/6].
