Özet

This review essay investigates the biological and physi-ological consequences of ptsd to deepen its academic understanding, alongside an analysis of psychobiologi-cal testing and assessment procedures. Psychological responses to traumatic events can be acute stress reactions or stress disorders. One among them is post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd). When people experience a trau-matic event, such as death, terror, or physical injury, they tend to demonstrate fear, helplessness, or hopelessness. Patients displaying other symptoms like re-experiencing the trauma, avoidance, or hyper-arousal also indicate PTSD. Experiencing extended PTSD may cause signifi-cant health problems, whether biological, such as the dysfunction of stress-responsive neurobiological sys-tems, or physiological, such as hypertension and heart disease. Previous studies of trauma survivors reported a strong link between physical and mental health. The cumulative literature in psychology shows that traumatic exposure can cause disturbing effects in the short and long term. This review will contribute to developing an understanding of the biological markers of PTSD. This paper specifically deals with biological and physiologi-cal testing and assessment of PTSD. It includes widely utilized biological assessments and summarizes a general multi-model assessment to identify PTSD symptoms.
