Accordingly, we sought the studies to review on the Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and Google Scholar databases using the keywords \u201cChild, Children, Adolescent, Adolescence, Adult, Aged, Elderly, Post\u2010Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD, Internal\u2010External Control, Locus of Control, Disasters, Natural Disasters.\u201d<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 1.011 studies were found in the five databases using the keywords above. Following the exclusions, the remaining six studies were recruited for this systematic review. The six studies in question addressed earthquakes (2), hurricanes (1), wildfires (1), SARS (1) and fireworks explosions (1). In the study with wildfire survivors, there was a weak significant association between external locus of control and PTSD among those directly exposed to the disaster (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.15, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.01). The study with survivors of the SARS epidemic demonstrated that those with a high perceived chance (external) locus of control suffered PTSD (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.001).
