Abstract

Due to concerns that individuals with severe mental illness (SMI) are too fragile to participate in trauma/PTSD research, we examined reactions to PTSD research participation among these patients. Most patients viewed their participation favorably and were not significantly distressed, suggesting an adequate benefit of trauma/PTSD research participation in this population.
