Abstract

This study assessed trauma exposure and psychological distress during the 2014 Israel-Gaza conflict using experience sampling methods. 182 Israeli civilians, including 86 with a psychiatric history, completed twice daily assessments for 30 days via mobile phone. We identified various war-related risk and resilience factors and identified high risk groups.
