Abstract

This study deals with the development of a forensic version (EGS-F) of the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Symptom Severity Scale according to DSM-5 criteria. The aim of this paper is intended to assess the symptoms severity of this mental disorder, as well as to detect probable malingering and symptom exaggeration among victims of gender violence in a forensic context. The sample consisted of 526 victims of sexual or family violence who sought therapy and 74 victims of the same kind who filed a complaint in court. Symptom severity was higher in victims assessed in the forensic context than in victims assessed in the clinical context. Items designed to detect probable malingering adequately discriminated between the two groups (t = 7.3, g = 0.97). A cut-off point of 2 in the subscale of malingering is appropriate to correctly classify the 74% of probable malingerers. This scale is useful for forensic assessment in victims of PTSD.

根据DSM-5的创伤后应激障碍症状严重程度:法医版本(EGS-F)

本研究根据DSM-5标准编制了创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)症状严重程度量表的法医版(EGS-F)。本文的目的是评估这种精神障碍的症状严重程度，并在法医背景下发现性别暴力受害者中可能存在的装病和症状夸大。样本包括526名寻求治疗的性暴力或家庭暴力受害者，以及74名向法院提起诉讼的同类受害者。在法医环境中评估的受害者的症状严重程度高于在临床环境中评估的受害者。设计用于检测可能的装病的项目在两组之间充分区分(t = 7.3, g = 0.97)。在装病子量表中，截断点2对于正确分类74%的可能装病者是合适的。这个量表对PTSD受害者的法医评估很有用。
