Refugees commonly experience traumatic events that threaten the self and close others, suggesting the possibility that they may experience overlapping symptoms of @entity1005 ( @entity1005 ) and @entity1172 ( @entity1172 ). We examine this possibility among West Papua refugees (n = 230) displaced to Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. We also examine associations between the combined @entity1005 - @entity1172 construct and indices of past @entity130 exposure, ongoing adversity, and the @entity2673 caused by mass conflict and displacement. We applied culturally adapted interview modules to assess symptoms of @entity1005 , @entity1172 , traumatic events (TEs), ongoing adversity, and 5 psychosocial dimensions. Latent class analysis identified a @entity1005 class (23%), a posttraumatic (PT) @entity1172 class (22%), and a low-symptom class (55%). Compared with the low-symptom class, both the @entity1005 and PT- @entity1172 classes endorsed higher levels of exposure to all domains of TEs (conflict-related @entity130 , witnessing murder, childhood related adversities, traumatic losses, and health stress) and ongoing adversity (access to health care, displacement/separation, safety in the community, and access to basic needs), but the 2 comorbid groups did not differ on these indices. The PT- @entity1172 class alone scored higher than the low-symptom reference class in relation to disruptions to the psychosocial domains (safety/security, bonds/network, access to justice, roles/identities, existential meaning) and higher than the @entity1005 class on safety/security, justice and roles/identities. Our findings suggest that the PT- @entity1172 pattern may represent a response to the most severe forms of @entity2673 of mass conflict among refugees. A focus on separation @entity148 may enhance psychotherapies designed to treat @entity1005 in refugees. (PsycINFO Database Record
