The author examines the effect of retrospective reports of political violence during the first Intifada (1987-1993) on psychological adjustment of 1,185 Palestinian adolescents (10th to 12th graders) seven years after the first Intifada ended, based on self-reported measures of political violence, socio-demographic characteristics, perceived parents’ psychological adjustment problems and internalizing (i.e., somatization, withdrawal, anxiety, and depression) and externalizing (i.e., thought, attention and social problems, delinquent and aggressive behaviors) symptoms. Findings showed the significant net effect of retrospectively reported exposure to political violence on both internalizing symptoms and externalizing symptoms over and above the effect of socio-demographic characteristics and perceived parents’ psychological adjustment problems.
