This book explores various issues concerning this far-reaching problem in the 21st century. The authors look at a historical reflection from the 20th and 21st centuries as society became more aware of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and vehicular crashes affecting the pediatric population. This book also includes the demographics of current as well as past national crash statistics, factors involved in dangerous driving, PTSD assessment concepts, PTSD differential diagnoses and comorbidities, the psychological impact of PTSD, issues for teachers, PTSD and resilience, and management principles for PTSD. The authors conclude with potential concepts of future predictions, including the emerging role of artificial intelligence. (Imprint: Nova Biomedical)
