    While I think this is an interesting study and I'm looking forward to reading the paper when it gets published, I don't really agree with the title given to this article. The original news story is titled "War is not NECESSARILY the cause of post-traumatic stress disorder" (the emphasis is mine). However, the title here would lead a reader to believe that war, under no circumstances, causes PTSD. I think this is misleading and not helpful to attempts to get war veterans properly treated for their psychological wounds as well as their physical ones.
