✦ Synopsis
Checklist-9GRevised and were assessed with structured interviews for a lifetime history of criminal victimization and Crime-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Using a criterion group classification approach, a 28-item scale within the SCL-90-R was developed that successfully discriminated between the CR-PTSD positive and negative respondents. Though replication and further research is needed, the developed scale may be of use for initial screening for CR-PTSD as well as for ongoing clinical assessment and research purposes.
