“…Respondents rated the severity/frequency of each item on a 5-point scale. The Vietnam theater group also indicated the extent of their exposure to combat by completing a combat activity scale (Cnllen ef al., 1985;Egendorf et af., 1981). The questions were based on DSM-111 diagnostic criteria for PTSD, previously published studies, and our own direct clinical experience with these veterans (Appendix A).…”

“…One critical independent variable in this body of research is, of course, combat exposure. The measurement of this variable ranges from a simple response to a “Were you in combat?” question (e.g., Petrik, Rosenberg, & Watson, 1983; Yesavage, 1983b) through a designation of combat versus noncombat status based upon confirming a minimum number of war-related trauma experiences (e.g., Fairbank, Keane, & Malloy, 1983; Helzer, 1984), to a multi-item scale that yields scores approximating a continuous dimension of combat exposure (e.g., Callen, Reaves, Maxwell, & McFarland, 1985; Escobar et al, 1983; Foy et al, 1984; Friedman, Schneiderman, West, & Corson, 1986; Lund, Foy, Sipprelle, & Strachan, 1984). Recognizing that other factors must surely come into play, it is generally accepted that increased dispersion or variability in a measure has the potential to enhance reliability, which in turn has the potential to enhance validity (Nunnally, 1978).…”
