Approximately 5% of the men and 9% of the women scored five symptoms or more. Among the men who reported five symptoms or more, about one third scored above a higher established PTSD cut-off value (PCL-4 > 44).</p><p><strong>Originality: </strong>The psychological symptom checklist represents a new approach to PTSD indication screening and identification of individuals who may need further support.</p><p><strong>Research limitations and strengths: </strong>Clinical assessment of PTSD would be a necessary complement for those that indicate further need. Study strengths include a large sample, use of established scales and a straightforward and simple statistical analysis.</p><p><strong>Practical implications: </strong>The checklist is easy to administer and score. After a brief introduction, it takes about two minutes to complete.</p>","PeriodicalId":19201,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Journal of Psychiatry","volume":" ","pages":"227-232"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143657425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
