With the growing number of scientific reports that document pervasive nature of trauma experiences and the prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder, the number of innovative treatment approaches also is increasing. It is clear that traumatology research and evaluation programs are not keeping pace with this increase. Most observers would agree that the great majoring of mental health services -- including but not limited to clinical traumatology -- has a very thin research base. There are very few treatment outcome studies compared to what mental health service providers are actually practicing in their offices around the world. Yet, as managed care grows there are increasing demands for accountability and validation of treatment efficacy (Figley, Carbonell, Boscarino & Chang, 1999). This final issue of the Journal’s Volume VI, several articles and reports attempt to fill this large void.
