Title:
PTSD Checklist - Stressor Specific (PCL-S)
Short Name:
PCLS
Description:
The PCL is a 17-item self-report measure of the DSM-IV symptoms of PTSD. Respondents rate how much they were bothered by a symptom on a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (not at all) to 5 (extremely). The PCL-S (specific) asks about symptoms in relation to an identified stressful experience. The PCL-S aims to link symptom endorsements to a specified event. Similar to the PCL-C, it is optimal to assess traumatic event exposure to ensure that the index event meets PTSD Criterion A. Respondents also can be instructed to complete the PCL-S in reference to a specified event or event type (e.g., assault, disaster, or accident).
