Abstract
The PTSD Inventory, a self-report diagnostic questionnaire based on DSM- III criteria, was revised to meet the more recent DSM-III-R criteria. This study examined the validity of the revised inventory relative to a structured clinical interview (SCID) and the Impact of Events Scale (IES). Results showed a high degree of concordance between the instruments, supporting the use of the more standardized, easy to administer and economical PTSD Inventory.
