Displaced people experience different traumatic events. This can cause serious and long-lasting consequences, in terms of physical and mental health outcome. Post-traumatic stress disorder is the most frequent mental disorder following traumatic exposure.

So, this study aimed to determine the estimated prevalence and associated factors of post-traumatic stress disorder among internally displaced people in south Ethiopia. A total of 625 participants were interviewed with a response rate of 98.3%. The estimated prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder was 58.4% with 95% CI 55 to 61.9. In the multivariate logistic regression, being female (AOR=2.4, 95% CI 1.6 to 3.4), depression (AOR=2.6, 95% CI 1.2 to 3.9), displaced more than once (AOR=3.7, 95% CI 2.4 to 5.8), destruction of personal property (AOR=1.6, 95%CI 1.04 to 2.44), witness the murder of family (AOR=2, 95% CI 1.2, 3.9), and cumulative trauma (AOR=4, 95% CI 1.7 to 9.6) were significantly associated factors.
