Post-Traumatic Stress Test
Assess symptoms related to a traumatic event
About this test
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can occur following exposure to a traumatic event. This comprehensive test explores four fundamental dimensions of PTSD: intrusive re-experiencing, avoidance behaviors, nervous system hyperarousal, and persistent negative cognitions. Based on current diagnostic criteria, it allows you to assess the impact of trauma on your daily life and identify the most relevant treatment approaches.
Dimensions assessed
- ●Re-experiencing- Intrusive episodes in which the traumatic event is involuntarily re-experienced.
- ●Avoidance- Efforts to avoid reminders of the trauma (thoughts, places, people).
- ●Hyperarousal- Persistent state of alertness and exaggerated startle responses.
- ●Negative cognitions- Persistent negative thoughts and beliefs related to the trauma.
