While there are many evidence-based psychological interventions for PTSI, the effectiveness of each intervention for PSP remains unclear.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The current study assessed the effectiveness and acceptability of psychological interventions for PTSI among PSPs.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A systematic review and random-effects meta-analysis were performed on the effectiveness and acceptability of psychotherapies for PTSIs (i.e., symptoms of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder) among PSP. The review adhered to the PRISMA reporting guidelines and used standardized mean differences (Cohen\u2019s <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic>), rate ratios (RR), and their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to measure pooled effect sizes across studies; negative <jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic> values and RR values less than one indicated a reduction in symptoms compared to baseline or control groups. In addition, heterogeneity was quantified using <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sup><jats:italic>2<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup>, and publication bias was evaluated using Egger\u2019s test.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The analyses included data from eight randomized controlled trials representing 402 PSP (79.4% male, 35.3 years). Psychological interventions included narrative exposure therapy (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 1), cognitive behavioral therapy (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 2), eclectic psychotherapy (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 2), eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 1), supportive counseling (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 2), and group critical incident stress debriefing (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 1). The interventions were associated with statistically significant reductions in symptoms associated with PTSD (<jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic> = \u2212 1.23; 95% CI \u2212 1.81, \u2212 0.65; 7 studies; <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sup><jats:italic>2<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup> = 81%), anxiety (\u2212 0.76; 95% CI \u2212 1.28, \u2212 0.24; 3 studies; <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sup><jats:italic>2<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup> = 47%), and depression (<jats:italic>d<\/jats:italic> = \u2212 1.10; 95% CI \u2212 1.62, \u2212 0.58; 5 studies; <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic><jats:sup><jats:italic>2<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup> = 64%).
