Study Summary

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disabling anxiety disorder that may occur after witnessing a traumatic event, and that evokes a combination of intrusion and avoidance symptoms, negative alterations in cognitions and mood, and alterations in arousal and reactivity1. The primary objective of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to estimate and compare the effects of the practice of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) vs. hatha yoga vs. a waitlist control condition in influencing symptoms of PTSD, related comorbidities, post-traumatic growth, and quality of life among U.S. service members/veterans with current symptoms of PTSD. In addition, objective measurements (comparisons) of stress and sleep quality will be made through the collection and evaluation of salivary alpha amylase, hair cortisol, and actigraphy, a non-invasive way to measure activity cycles.

Primary Outcome

There are 20 questions that inquire about the different symptoms that correspond to 4 different types of PTSD symptoms (intrusion, avoidances, negative affect and hyperarousal). Each item is scored on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (hasn't bothered a person in the past 2 weeks) to 4 (bothers the person all the time). We used total score on this test.
