The current study compared personality characteristics and cognitive functioning (specifically, attentional bias) in a sample of adults who had experienced childhood trauma (the Trauma group) and a matched healthy control group. The study also examined the possible effects of the mu-opioid agonist buprenorphine on attentional bias in the Trauma group.
