Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
change from baseline child posttraumatic stress symptoms at posttreatment
Time Frame: 1 week
Foa et al.,(2018) revised the Self-Rating Scale for Symptoms of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder in Children (CPSS-5-SR), with Cronbach's α reliability coefficient of 0.78. Cpss-5-SR is a 27-item self-reporting measure. Symptom items were scored on a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (almost always).
