Validation of the Polish PPQ-II: sociodemographic and clinical correlates of perinatal PTSD
The Polish adaptation of the PPQ-II demonstrates strong reliability and validity for assessing perinatal PTSD. Maternal sociodemographic and clinical factors-particularly delivery method, neonatal complications, and socioeconomic conditions-substantially influence CB-PTSD severity. These findings emphasize the need for psychosocial assessment in perinatal care and targeted support for high-risk groups to mitigate adverse psychological outcomes.
