Carlson, Lauderdale, Hawkins, and Sheikh. (2012). Postraumatic Stress Screen for the Cognitively Impaired (PTSS-CI). Measurement Instrument Database for the Social Science. Retrieved 20.08.2020 from www.midss.ie Key references: Carlson, E. B., Lauderdale, S., Hawkins, J., & Sheikh, J. I. (2008). Posttraumatic stress and aggression among veterans in long-term care. Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neurology, 21, 61-71. Primary use / Purpose: The PTSS-CI is designed to assess posttraumatic stress symptoms in individuals who are cognitively impaired. Background: Posttraumatic stress symptoms can affect an individual's well-being, functioning, and quality of life. Such effects may be exacerbated for individuals who are cognitively impaired and lack the resources to deal with such symptoms or the ability to communicate with, or seek help from, others. The Posttraumatic Stress Screen for the Cognitively Impaired (PTSS-CI) identified symtpoms of posttraumatic stress and is suitable for use with individuals who are elderly and cognitively impaired, brain injured, or developmentally disabled. Both self-report and observer versions are available. Each contains 8 items that assess PTSD symptoms including reexperiencing, avoiding, and hyperarousal. The language used is very simple. Carlson and colleagues (2008) describe the scoring of the instrument. Psychometrics: Preliminary findings on the psychometric properties of the PTSS-CI are discussed in Carlson et al. (2008) Keywords: Anxiety; Family; Stress Other keywords: Posttraumatic Stress Disorder; PTSD; Cognitive Impairment; Stress Digital Object Identifier (DOI): http://dx.doi.org/10.13072/midss.252 Instructions: This measure can be completed by a health care provider, family member, or friend who has observed the patient’s behavior for at least one week. For each symptom, fill in the number that best reflects the patient’s behavior. Moderate and severe ratings should be given for symptoms that happened many times or for a symptom that happens only once or twice, but is very upsetting. 0 = Not at all 1 = Mild: happened, but was not very upsetting or troublesome 2 = Moderate: clearly noticeable, patient bothered or upset by this problem; patient had to stop what he/she was doing, but only for a few minutes 3 = Severe: patient very upset by this problem; patient had to stop what he/she was doing and took more than 10 minutes to calm down; upset enough for others to notice

Read the instructions below to the patient. Make sure that the patient understands that the questions are about what happened in the past week. For each symptom, fill in the number that best reflects the patient’s response. Moderate and severe ratings should be given for symptoms that happened many times or for a symptom that happens only once or twice, but is very upsetting. Use the ratings below, but DO NOT read these definitions to the patient. 0 = Not at all 1 = Mild: happened, but was not very upsetting or troublesome 2 = Moderate: clearly noticeable, patient bothered or upset by this problem; patient had to stop what he/she was doing, but only for a few minutes 3 = Severe: patient very upset by this problem; patient had to stop what he/she was doing and took more than 10 minutes to calm down; upset enough for others to notice If the patient seems unsure of how to respond, use prompts such as: “Did that happen last week?” “Did it upset you?” “Did it bother you?”
