Measurement Instrument Database for the Social Science (MIDSS) - The Screen for Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (SPTSS)

Carlson, E.. (2012). The Screen for Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (SPTSS). Measurement Instrument Database for the Social Science. Retrieved 21.08.2020 from www.midss.ie Key references: Carlson, E. (2001). Psychometric study of a brief screen for PTSD: Assessing the impact of multiple traumatic events. Assessment, 8, 431-441. Caspi, Y., Carlson, E. B., & Klein, E. (2007). Validation of a screening instrument for posttraumatic stress disorder in a community sample of bedouin men serving in the israeli defense forces. Journal of Traumatic Stress, 20, 517-527. Primary use / Purpose: The SPTSS is a brief self-report screening instrument for PTSD symptoms. Background: The Screen for Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (SPTSS) is a brief screen, not based on a single-reported trauma model, that may aid researchers and clinicians in identifying persons who have high levels of posttraumatic stress symptoms. Items for the SPTSS are designed to closely match the DSM-IV criteria for PTSD except that symptoms are not linked to a particular stressor. Items are written in simple, colloquial language making the instrument suitable for use with a wide variety of populations. Caspi et al. (2007) highlight several advantages of the SPTSS including its not linking the symptoms to a specific event, which allows it to be used with individuals who have experienced multiple stressful events, its focus on frequency rather than distress, which may increase its utility with individuals hesitant to report vulnerable emotions, its low reading level requirement, and the short duration required for administration. Several versions of the SPTSS are available and inquire about the symptoms experienced over the past two or one weeks. Each version contains 17 items and uses either a 10-point or 5-point frequency rating scale. Psychometrics: The psychometric properties of the instrument are examined in Carlson (2001) and Caspi, Carlson, & Klein (2007). Digital Object Identifier (DOI): http://dx.doi.org/10.13072/midss.253

Detecting depressive and anxiety disorders in distressed patients in primary care; comparative diagnostic accuracy of the Four-Dimensional Symptom Questionnaire (4DSQ) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). BMC Fam Pract 2009; 10:58. Primary use / Purpose: The 4DSQ is a self-report questionnaire to assess distress, depression, anxiety and somatization. It is mainly used in primary care. The 4DSQ helps to differentiate between normal distress and psychiatric disorder. Background: Many health care problems in primary care are stress-related (distress) and do not represent true psychiatric disorder (irrespective of whether DSM-IV criteria for depressive or anxiety disorders are fulfilled). Indiscriminate application of DSM-IV criteria in the primary care setting produces many false positive diagnoses confusing patients and misleading professionals. In health care practice the 4DSQ can be used to: - help patients acknowledge mental health issues when presenting with physical complaints, - assess the overall severity of the mental health problems, - detect depressive and anxiety disorders severe enough to require specific treatment (antidepressants or cognitive behavioral therapy), - monitor patients' progress under treatment. Psychometrics: The 4DSQ has been extensively tested for reliability and validity. Reliability is high (coefficients generally >.80). Factorial, critirion and concurrant validity has been confirmed.

Primary use / Purpose: ASA-27 is a 27-item self-report questionnaire that purports to examine symptoms of separation anxiety experienced after 18 years of age, with Likert ratings on a scale of zero (this never happens) to three (this happens very often).

(1995) Normative values for the Beck Anxiety Inventory, Fear Questionnaire, Penn State Worry Questionnaire, and Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory. Psychological Assessment, 7, 450-455. Primary use / Purpose: The Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) is a 16-item questionnaire that aims to measure the trait of worry, using Likert rating from 1 (not at all typical of me) to 5 (very typical of me). Research suggests that the instrument has a strong ability to differentiate patients with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) from other anxiety disorders. Background: Worry is regarded as a dominant feature of GAD. Since its development in 1990, the PSWQ has become a widely used self-report tool for pathological worry and GAD. The PSWQ attempts to measure the excessiveness, generality, and uncontrollable dimensions of worry. Psychometrics: The PSWQ has shown to possess high internal consistency and good test-retest reliability (Meyer et al., 1990). Digital Object Identifier (DOI): http://dx.doi.org/10.13072/midss.158 Scoring the PSWQ In scoring the PSWQ, a value of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 is assigned to a response depending upon whether the item is worded positively or negatively. The total score of the scale ranges from 16 to 80. Items 1, 3, 8, 10, 11 are reverse scored as follows: • Very typical of me = 1 (circled 5 on the sheet) • Circled 4 on the sheet = 2 • Circled 3 on the sheet = 3 • Circled 2 on the sheet = 4 • Not at all typical of me = 5 (circled 1 on the sheet) For items 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 the scoring is: • Not at all typical of me = 1 • Ratings of 2, 3, and 4 are not transformed • Very typical of me = 5

Primary use / Purpose: The PANAS-X assesses the specific, distinguishable affective emotional states that emerge from within the broader general dimensions of positive and negative emotional experience. Background: In recent research, two broad, general factors—typically labeled Positive Affect (PA) and Negative Affect (NA)—have emerged reliably as the dominant dimensions of emotional experience. These factors have been identified in both intraand interindividual analyses, and they emerge consistently across diverse descriptor sets, time frames, response formats, languages, and cultures. The PANAS-X: Manual for the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule , is a 60-item, expanded version of the PANAS. In addition to the two original higher order scales, the PANAS-X measures 11 specific affects: Fear, Sadness,Guilt, Hostility, Shyness, Fatigue, Surprise, Joviality,Self-Assurance, Attentiveness, and Serenity.
