Abstract
This preliminary study examined work limitations in 27 employed persons seeking treatment for chronic posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) using the Work Limitations Questionnaire (Lerner et al., 2001). Results showed that this sample experienced an impaired ability to perform time management demands, output demands, and mental‐interpersonal demands at work. This study adds new knowledge on the scope of work impairment of PTSD and identifies the important need for developing work‐focused measurement tools and interventions.
