  • Title: Assessing war trauma in refugees: properties of the Comprehensive Trauma Inventory-104.
    Author: Hollifield M, Warner TD, Jenkins J, Sinclair-Lian N, Krakow B, Eckert V, Karadaghi P, Westermeyer J.
    Journal: J Trauma Stress; 2006 Aug; 19(4):527-40. PubMed ID: 16929508.
    Abstract:
    In this article, the authors describe the properties of the Comprehensive Trauma Inventory-104 (CTI-104), developed and designed empirically to improve assessment of traumatic war-related events. The mean number of events reported by 252 community dwelling Kurdish and Vietnamese refugees was 32 (SD=27) out of the 104 items. Internal and test-retest reliability was excellent, and the validity of the CTI-104 as a measure of war trauma was supported by its high correlation with standard measures of known outcomes of trauma. The CTI-104 is reliable and valid, and assesses a broader range of traumatic war-related events in a broader range of refugees than currently available instruments.
