心理生理评估数据，包括心率（HR），血压，额肌电（EMG）反应心算，特质录音带描述的机动车事故（MVA），和标准的录像带的MVAs，收集了105受伤的受害者最近MVA和54个非MVA控制。他们的数据复制了早期报告中的数据（Blanchard等人，1994），并支持效用的HR响应的MVA的录音描述，作为有用的区分MVA受害者与PTSD与那些亚综合征的PTSD和非PTSD。在1年的随访中，对125名MVA受害者重复进行了心理生理评估：结果显示心理生理反应普遍减少。最初的心理生理学评估结果预测1年的后续临床状态（持续的PTSD或完全或部分缓解）的48个人谁最初符合PTSD标准的37。
Psychophysiological assessment data, including heart rate (HR), blood pressure, and frontal electromyogram (EMG) responses to mental arithmetic, idiosyncratic audiotape descriptions of motor vehicle accidents (MVAs), and a standard videotape of MVAs, were collected on 105 injured victims of recent MVAs and 54 non-MVA controls. Their data replicated data from an earlier report (Blanchard et al., 1994) and support the utility of HR response to the audiotaped description of the MVA as useful in distinguishing MVA victims with PTSD from those with subsyndromal PTSD and non-PTSD. At a 1-year follow-up, the psychophysiological assessment was repeated on 125 MVA victims: results showed a general diminution of psychophysiological responding. Initial psychophysiological assessment results predicted 1-year follow-up clinical status (continued PTSD or full or partial remission) for 37 of 48 individuals who initially met criteria for PTSD.
