Applying Posttraumatic Stress Disorder MMPI Subscale to World War II POW Veterans.
Query, William T.; And Others
Journal of Clinical Psychology, v42 n2 p315-17 Mar 1986
Examined the validity of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) subscale in diagnosing older prisoner of war (POW) veterans. Results indicated that the PTSD subscale can be generalized to older veterans. PTSD was more common among POWs from the Pacific theater than those from Europe, however, the subscale failed to distinguish between the veterans. (Author/BL)
