Post-traumatic stress disorder and the risk of violent crime conviction in Sweden: a nationwide, register-based cohort study

Abstract:

Background

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been linked to violent crime in veteran populations. However, whether there is a link between PTSD and violent crime in the general population is not known. This study aimed to investigate the hypothesised association between PTSD and violent crime in the Swedish general population and to investigate the extent to which familial factors might explain this association using unaffected sibling control individuals.
