Psychometric properties and diagnostic utility of a Brazilian version of the PCL-5 (complete and abbreviated versions)

Abstract: Background: With the release of the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist (PCL) has been updated to meet the revisions of the diagnostic criteria for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, the diagnostic utility and reliability of a Brazilian version of the new Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist (PCL-5) have not been investigated yet. Objective: To investigate the internal consistency, test-retest reliabilit… Show more

“…Based on previous evaluations (e.g. Blevins et al, 2015;Bovin et al, 2015;Hall et al, 2019;Pereira-Lima et al, 2019), we hypothesised that the PCL-5 would show high levels of internal consistency and acceptable to good testretest reliability. From previous studies (e.g.…”

“…More recently, Weathers et al (2013) developed the PCL for the DSM‐5 (PCL‐5) but its psychometric analyses are still scarce to date. In general, the available findings suggest that the measure has adequate psychometric properties across different samples: war Veterans (Bovin et al, 2016; Lee et al, 2019; Wortmann et al, 2016), college students (Ashbaugh, Houle‐Johnson, Herbert, El‐Hage, & Brunet, 2016; Blevins, Weathers, Davis, Witte, & Domino, 2015), earthquake survivors (Demirchyan, Goenjian, & Khachadourian, 2015; P. Liu et al, 2014; Wang et al, 2015), internally displaced people and refugees affected by war (Ibrahim, Ertl, Catani, Ismail, & Neuner, 2018), trauma‐exposed individuals (Krüger‐Gottschalk et al, 2017; Pereira‐Lima, Loureiro, Bolsoni, Apolinario da Silva, & Osório, 2019; Seligowski & Orcutt, 2016), and parents of children with burns (Sveen, Bondjers, & Willebrand, 2016). Table 2 summarizes the main psychometric properties of the PCL‐5 found in some of these studies.…”

“…This 5-point Likert scale is a 20-item self-report assessing the 20 DSM-5 PTSD symptoms. Responses vary according to how much each symptom of PTSD has bothered the individual in the last 4 weeks, rated from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely) [ 42 ].…”
