Abstract (english)	Aim To assess psychological problems in children as reported by their veteran fathers with war-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Method The study group consisted of 154 veterans with war-related PTSD who were treated at the Mostar University Hospital. The control group consisted of 77 veterans without war-related PTSD who were selected from veteran associations by the snowball method. General Demographic Questionnaire, the first and fourth module of the Harvard Trauma Questionnaire–Bosnia and Herzegovina version, and the Questionnaire on Developmental, Emotional, and Behavioral Problems in Children, created specifically for the needs of this study, were used to collect data on veterans’ perception of psychological problems in their children. Results In comparison with veterans without PTSD, veterans with PTSD reported significantly more developmental (odds ratio [OR], 2.37; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.51-3.73), behavioral (OR, 3.92; 95% CI, 1.53-10.03), and emotional problems (OR, 17.74; 95% CI, 2.40-131.10) in their children. Conclusion Veterans with war-related PTSD more often reported developmental problems in their children. Father’s PTSD may have long-term and long-lasting consequences on the child’s personality.
