The development of posttraumatic stress disorder following four different types of traumatization
Abstract
The Children's Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Inventory (CPTSDI) was used to identify 230 childhood posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) cases. Of these cases, 58 had been traumatized through direct experience, 128 through observation, 13 through verbal mediation, and 31 by combinations thereof. The 230 children and 35 controls completed the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS) and the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI). In addition, their conduct was rated on the Connor's Teacher Rating Scale (CTRS) criteria. Each of the PTSD groups had significantly greater RCMAS, CDI, and CTRS scores than the non-clinical controls, but there were no differences between the four types of PTSD cases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
