Cardiovascular Risk in Relation to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Young Women

The purpose of this study is to obtain a better understanding of how stress is related to
health risks.

Participants complete up to two study visits of approximately 3-4 hours each. The first
study visit involves an interview about life experiences and emotions. If the participant is
eligible for the second assessment, the average length of time between visit 1 and visit 2
will be 1-7 days. The second visit included physical measurements such as cholesterol and
blood pressure, performing math and speaking tasks, and surveys to help us learn about
healthy behaviors and emotions. No further follow-up of participants is conducted beyond
the two study visits.
