Abstract
Background: Trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are common among individuals with serious mental illness (SMI; e.g., schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, treatment refractory major depressive disorder), with resultant functional impairment. Previous studies have not evaluated the factor structure of the PTSD Checklist (PCL) among persons with SMI.
Aims: This study evaluated the factor structure of the PCL in two large SMI samples from public mental health treatment sectors screened for PTSD using the PCL.
Methods: Four different models of PTSD were tested using confirmatory factor analyses.
Results: Results indicated that the DSM-5 4-factor model (intrusion, avoidance, numbing, and hyperarousal) had the best fit. Further, the DSM-5 4-factor model demonstrated measurement invariance.
Conclusions: Results supported the suitability of the DSM-5 4-factor model of PTSD among people with SMI.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Mental Health is an international forum for the latest research in the mental health field. Reaching over 65 countries, the journal reports on the best in evidence-based practice around the world and provides a channel of communication between the many disciplines involved in mental health research and practice. The journal encourages multi-disciplinary research and welcomes contributions that have involved the users of mental health services. The international editorial team are committed to seeking out excellent work from a range of sources and theoretical perspectives. The journal not only reflects current good practice but also aims to influence policy by reporting on innovations that challenge traditional ways of working.
