Objective:
To document college students' trauma rates and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms; yoga and trauma-sensitive yoga (TSY) experience; and TSY interest, barriers, preferences.
Participants:
English-fluent students ages 18+ enrolled at a southeastern United States university (N = 339).
Methods:
A mixed method online survey assessed trauma (Life Event Checklist for DSM-5), PTSD symptoms (Primary Care PTSD Screen for DSM-5), and TSY variables.
Results:
Ninety-four percent had trauma exposure and 30% reported clinically elevated PTSD symptoms. Some (11%) had heard of TSY and 2% had TSY experience. Most had some TSY interest (73%). Participants with clinically elevated PTSD symptoms and TSY interest (n = 91), reported top barriers of time (56%), scheduling, (55%), and cost (55%), and preferences for hybrid (41%), group programs (69%), for survivors of any trauma type (73%).
Conclusions:
Results support TSY program need and interest and can be used to develop and implement accessible TSY programs.
