Text

Regarding cohort effects, compared with respondents aged 65 years or older, all three of the younger cohorts had lower odds of exposure to collective violence but higher odds of interpersonal violence, sexual violence, accidents/injuries, unexpected death of a loved one and being mugged. Only the youngest cohort had increased odds of causing/witnessing bodily harm. These ORs ranged from 1.3 to 5.2 and generally decreased with increasing age. The odds for each individual TE were very consistent with the aggregate results. Only natural disasters, being beaten up by a caregiver, and having purposefully injured or killed were unrelated to cohort.
