目的：本研究旨在检验创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）检查表平民版（PCL-C; Blanchard，Jones-Alexander，Buckley，& Forneris，1996）的信度、效度和因素结构。参与者是美国东部一所大型大学的471名本科生，他们没有根据创伤史或症状严重程度进行预选。结果PCL-C具有良好的内部一致性和重测信度。与PTSD的其他测量方法相比，PCL-C显示了良好的模式的收敛和判别效度。与先前使用已知创伤暴露样本的研究相反，我们发现支持PTSD症状的1因素和2因素模型。结论总体而言，PCL-C似乎是一个有效和可靠的措施PTSD症状，即使在非临床样本，是优于一些替代措施的PTSD上级。非临床样本中的因子结构可能不反映每个PTSD症状群（即，再体验、回避/麻木和过度觉醒）。(c)2012 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.

Objectives We examined the reliability, validity, and factor structure of the posttraumatic stress diorder (PTSD) Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C; Blanchard, Jones-Alexander, Buckley, & Forneris, 1996) among unselected undergraduate students. Participants Participants were 471 undergraduate students at a large university in the Eastern United States and were not preselected based on trauma history or symptom severity. Results The PCL-C demonstrated good internal consistency and retest reliability. Compared with alternative measures of PTSD, the PCL-C showed favorable patterns of convergent and discriminant validity. In contrast to previous research using samples with known trauma exposure, we found support for both 1-factor and 2-factor models of PTSD symptoms. Conclusions Overall, the PCL-C appears to be a valid and reliable measure of PTSD symptoms, even among nonclinical samples, and is superior to some alternative measures of PTSD. The factor structure among nonclinical samples may not reflect each of the PTSD symptom clusters (i.e., reexperiencing, avoidance/numbing, and hyperarousal). (c) 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Clin.
