The University of California, Los Angeles, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
Reaction Index (UCLA PTSD Index) for the Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM–IV) is a self-administered scale
that includes a checklist of potentially traumatic events and 20 items that
screen for PTSD symptoms and their frequency over the past month. Each
Description:
of the symptoms items is scored on a 5-point scale (0 = none of the time;
4 = most of the time), but only 17 of the items that correspond to the
DSM-IV PTSD symptom criteria are included in the total score. Additional
scoring instructions, including how to calculate severity scores, are included
in the score sheet.
PTSD Symptoms and Diagnosis in Children and Adolescents – DSM-4
There are three versions of the UCLA PTSD Index: a Child Version for
ages between 7 and 12; a Parent Version for children between the ages of
7 and 12; and an Adolescent Version for youth between the ages 13 and
18. The instructions and questions should be read to children under the age
of 12 or to youth with reading difficulties.

Selection
Rationale:
Source:
This measure includes both the DSM-IV and DSM-5 versions of the UCLA
PTSD Index. The PhenX External Review Panel anticipates that scientific
demands will dictate that researchers typically collect data in accordance
with the most recent PTSD criteria and will use the DSM-5 version of the
protocol. However, under special circumstances (e.g., when adding to
older, existing data sets), researchers may decide to use the DSM-IV
version instead.
