et al. (2017) demonstrated that trauma‐exposed children showed cognitive deficits, especially those with a PTSD diagnosis. However, these studies have been limited by sample sizes (e.g., Bucker et al. (2012) recruited 30 trauma‐exposed children and 30 age‐ and sex‐matched controls) or available data on trauma type (Corbo et al., 2016; Malarbi et al., 2017). One study has shown that sexual trauma, and not physical or interpersonal trauma, moderates psychotherapy outcome for PTSD (Markowitz, Neria, Lovell, Van Meter, & Petkova, 2017), which underscores the importance of investigating trauma by type in order to better understand the development of PTSD and related disorders. While these results indicate that there are associations between trauma and poor problem‐solving (i.e., more excess moves made), this result is based on only a single test (TOLT).
