The nature and course of subthreshold PTSD
Abstract
This study investigated rates of subthreshold PTSD and associated impairment in comparison to no PTSD and full PTSD and prospectively followed the course of subthreshold symptoms over 3 years. 3360 workers dispatched to the WTC site following 9/11 completed clinician interviews and self-report measures at three time points each one year apart. At Time 1, 9.7% of individuals met criteria for subthreshold PTSD. The no PTSD, subthreshold PTSD, and full PTSD groups exhibited significantly different levels of impairment, rates of current MDD diagnosis, and self-reported symptoms of depression. At Time 2, 29% of the initial sample with subthreshold PTSD continued to meet criteria for subthreshold or full PTSD; at Time 3, this was true for 24.5% of the initial sample. The study lends credence to the clinical significance of subthreshold PTSD and emphasizes that associated impairment may be significant and longstanding. It also confirms clinical differences between subthreshold and full PTSD.

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.
