Using structural equation modeling, the present study investigated the relationship between after-effects of war-related traumatic events, generalized self-efficacy, self-esteem, subjective well-being, and distress. Questionnaires (Impact of Event Scale–Revised, Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, Satisfaction With Life Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Generalized Self- Esteem) were administered to 214 civilian war survivors in Kosovo. The results show a high prevalence of traumatic experiences (83%) with high psychological distress. The severity of traumatic stress was accompanied by negative affectivity and was inversely related to selfesteem. The other self-related constructs neither had an impact nor were found to be diminished by the amount of traumatic stress experienced.
