“…Our findings should be warranted via cross-validation of our results in larger clinical and non-clinical samples. Second, we replicated a cut-off criteria of 47 for a tentative PTSD diagnosis previously suggested by Boysan [29], our cut-off value was excessively greater than the critical values reported in previous studies [17,49]. Further studies should be performed in larger and qualitatively different samples in order to find a more reliable critical value for PTSD diagnosis or verify current cut-off criteria for the Turkish version of the PCL-5.…”

Background: In the subsequent revision of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5; American Psychiatric Association, 2013) symptoms of diagnostic criteria for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are defined in four clusters and the number of PTSD symptoms was expanded to 20. The Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS) is the most widely used structured clinical interview and recognized as the golden standard in PTSD diagnosis. The final revision of the clinical interview form as the CAPS for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) was advanced in line with the recent revisions in DSM-5 with regards to the PTSD definition. The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of CAPS-5 in clinical samples and healthy controls. Methods: In the present study, 30 inpatients with PTSD and 30 inpatients with major depressive disorder consecutively presented to the Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic Yüzüncü Yıl University Research Hospital, and 30 healthy controls were enrolled. All participants were included if only they reported an index trauma in the Life Events Checklist for DSM-5 (LEC-5) that bothered them during the past month. Subjects were administered a socio-demographic questionnaire, the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) along with the LEC-5, CAPS-5 and PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). We used confirmatory factor analysis to compare a structured clinical interview (CAPS-5) and a self-report measure, the PCL-5 and to examine DSM-5 implied four-symptom clusters and several factor structures proposed in the literature to understand which model best represents the latent factor structure of PSTD symptoms. Using multivariate analysis of covariance, concurrent validity of both self-report and structured clinical interview was evaluated. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was utilized to obtain an optimal cut-off value of the PCL-5 scores in order to use in demarcating cases with non-cases. Results: Even though DSM-5 implied four-factor model adequately fit to either data collected using self-report or clinician-administered measures of PTSD, the latent structure of PTSD symptoms measured by either CAPS-5 or PCL-5 were best represented by six-factor Externalizing Behaviors model, particularly compared to seven-factor Hybrid model. In comparison to depressive and control groups, PTSD patients reported greater scores on the PCL-5, DES, BDI, and BAI and McNemar χ 2 values between two applications with two weeks interval were unsubstantial. Additionally, PTSD patients exhibited greater symptom endorsement on B, C, D, E, F, G symptom clusters and dissociative subtype than depressive patients and controls. Using signal detection analysis, a significant area under the curve (AUC) was calculated for the PCL-5 (AUC = 0.87 p < 0.001 asymptotic 95% Confidence Interval = 0.798-0.942). The PCL-5 had excellent diagnostic utility with 0.90 sensitivity and 0.80 specificity on a cut-off score ≥47. Conclus...

“…For each symptom, participants are asked to rate severity on a scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely) that is indicative of distress having experienced in regard to index trauma during the past month. The Turkish version of the PCL-5 was demonstrated to have good psychometric properties [29] (see, Appendix 2).…”

“…The structural validity of the PCL-5 instrument was analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). We applied the DSM-5 four-factor model, the six-factor Anhedonia model [54], and the seven-factor Hybrid model [69]. The Anhedonia model includes Intrusion, Avoidance, Negative affect, Anhedonia, Dysphoric arousal, and Anxious arousal factors.…”

Preliminary validation of the Dutch version of the Posttraumatic stress disorder checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) after traumatic brain injury in a civilian population

et al. 2020

The Posttraumatic stress disorder checklist (PCL) is the most widely used questionnaire to screen for symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), based on the Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental disorders (DSM-IV) criteria. In the latest edition of the DSM (DSM-5), the criteria for PTSD were revised leading to the development of the PCL-5. So far, there is no validated Dutch version of the PCL-5. The aim of this study is to determine psychometric characteristics of the Dutch translation and linguistic validation of the PCL-5 and to evaluate internal consistency, criterion and structural validity. In a population of 495 civilian, traumatic brain injury patients, the PCL-5, the Generalized anxiety disorder questionnaire and the Depression scale of the Patient health questionnaire were administered. The PCL-5 was translated in Dutch following a strict procedure of linguistic validation and cognitive debriefing. Results show an excellent internal consistency and high criterion validity. Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated a good fit for the four-factor DSM-5 model, but a superior fit for the six-factor Anhedonia model and the seven-factor Hybrid model, similar to the English version of the PCL-5. Preliminary validation of the Dutch translation of the PCL-5 was proven to be psychometrically sound and can be used for clinical and academic purposes, specifically for TBI patients. Future research should examine concurrent and discriminant validity for the Dutch translation in broader populations at risk for PTSD, and include a structured interview to evaluate diagnostic utility.

The Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) is a widely used, self-report measure that is employed to assess PTSD symptom severity and determine the presence of probable PTSD in various trauma-exposed populations. The PCL-5 is often administered in clinical settings as a screening tool for PTSD, with a suggested cutoff score of 33 indicating a probable PTSD diagnosis. Recent research indicates that a higher cutoff may be required in psychiatric samples. In the present study, we aimed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the PCL-5 in a Canadian outpatient psychiatric sample and establish an optimal cutoff score for detecting probable PTSD in this sample. Participants were 673 individuals who reported a history of trauma exposure and were assessed using a semistructured interview and self-report measures. Individuals diagnosed with PTSD (N = 193) reported a mean PCL-5 score of 56.57, whereas individuals without PTSD (N = 480) reported a mean score of 33.56. A score of 45 was determined to be the optimal cutoff score in this sample, balancing sensitivity and specificity while detecting a probable diagnosis of PTSD. Consistent with 424
