Abstract

Undergraduate students experiencing posttraumatic stress (PTS) symptoms or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have less consistent routines. Routines are associated with positive overall functioning. The results showed that the number of PTS symptoms negatively impacted college students’ routines. These findings suggest that routine maintenance may be beneficial in ameliorating PTS symptoms.
