儿童创伤后应激障碍症状量表（CPSS）的儿童和青少年的发展和实验室验证的报告。CPSS是一种新的工具，用于评估精神障碍诊断和统计手册（第4版;美国精神病学协会，1994年）创伤后应激障碍症状的儿童暴露于创伤。在1994年加州北岭地震后约2年，对75名学龄儿童进行了CPSS。CPSS的心理测量学特性显示出较高的内部一致性和重测信度的总分和三个分量表。建立了儿童创伤后应激障碍反应指数（CPTSD-RI）的收敛效度。CPSS与抑郁、焦虑指标的相关性低于CPTSD-RI，为CPSS的区分效度提供了一定的支持。这些结果表明，CPSS是一个有用的工具，评估创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的严重程度和筛选PTSD诊断的创伤儿童。
Reports on the development and preliminary-validation of the Child PTSD Symptom Scale (CPSS) for children and adolescents. The CPSS is a new instrument that was developed to assess the severity of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms in children exposed to trauma. The CPSS was administered to 75 school-age children approximately 2 years after the 1994 Northridge, California, earthquake. The psychometric properties of the CPSS show high internal consistency and test-retest reliability for both the total score and the three subscales. Convergent validity with the Child Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Reaction Index (CPTSD-RI) was established. As expected, the correlations of the CPSS with depression and anxiety measures were lower than those vith the CPTSD-RI, providing some support for discriminant validity of the CPSS. These results suggest that the CPSS is a useful tool for the assessment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) severity and for the screening of PTSD diagnosis among traumatized children.
