Berørte av kriser og katastrofer skal i dag få mye bedre oppfølging enn etter Kielland-ulykken. Desserre er ikke det alltid tilfelle. For 45 år siden omkom 123 arbeidere i Kielland-ulykken. De 89 overlevende, pårørende og andre berørte fikk lite eller ingen oppfølging i tiden etterpå. I 2024 utga vi en undersøkelse som viste at berørte fortsatt strever med uforholdsmessig mye psykiske helseplager og redusert livskvalitet.

Measures Dependent variable: High school completion High school completion was assessed based on registry data from the National Education Database. Three hierarchically ordered mutually exclusive categories were created as follows: not completed (coded as 0); completed, but completion extended beyond the normative time frame (coded as 1); and completed within the normative time frame (coded as 2).

4. Discussion In the present study, we looked at the association between watching media coverage on terrorist attacks and proximity to the attacks 1–2 weeks after the terrorist attacks in Belgium of 22/03/2016. Our results suggest that, although proximity was associated in an important way with mental and somatic symptoms, media watching had a seemingly stronger association, especially when watching more than three hours of media about terrorist attacks.
