🇮🇸Iceland, with the world's highest gender equality: New study of trauma among a representative sample of 28,000 adult women found that sexual, physical assaults were common. These stressors were associated with the highest prevalence of probable PTSD. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

In this cross-sectional survey, the prevalence of life stressors ranged from 3.3% for war or armed conflict–related events to 66% for unwanted sexual experiences. Prevalence of probable PTSD was 16% but varied substantially across different stressor types.
