Short Description of Instrument |
The UCLA PTSD Index for DSM-5 is a semi-structured interview that assesses a child's exposure to 26 types of traumatic events and assesses DSM-5 PTSD diagnostic criteria. It assesses symptoms of PTSD and associated symptoms of guilt and fear of the event reoccurring. A parent-report version is also available. These instruments provide brief (20 minute) screening generating information about trauma exposure and resulting PTSD symptoms.

Scoring |
The child version has 20 items, adolescent version has 22 items and the parent version has 21 questions. The index score is the sum of all items rated on a 5-point Likert scale (0-4).
