What is Religiosity and secondary traumatic stress in Israeli-Jewish body handlers about?
This study investigated the relationship between religiosity and levels of secondary traumatic stress in Israeli-Jewish body handlers. The Impact of Event Scale (IES), the General Health Questionnaire, 12 Items (GHQ-12), and a prior exposure severity tool were used to assess secondary traumatic stress symptoms in 63 ultraorthodox male body handlers as they compared to 86 secular forensic identification technicians from the Israeli police. Excluding possible confounders of age and number of years at the job, there was no significant difference between the religious and nonreligious groups on the intrusion and avoidance scores, whereas the GHQ-12 scores were significantly higher among the religious group. Religiosity did not seem to have a salutary effect on secondary traumatic stress in this cohort.
