Notes: Goodness of fit: chi square =78.309, DF =15, CFI =0.960, WRMR =0.510. Indirect effects from posttraumatic disorder to quality of life =−0.27 and to suicide risk =0.30. Indirect effects from violent victimization to depression =0.17. P represents standardized path coefficient. All the data were measured at baseline, except violent victimization in the past 6 months.
