World View Survey, a measure designed to assess important beliefs that may
be changed by traumatic experience • The World View Survey: Measuring Beliefs |
The childhood PTSD scales are now into Version 4. So

This study represents a secondary analysis
of data available through the Fort Bragg Evaluation Project (FBEP), a
comprehensive five-year evaluation of children's comparative mental health
outcomes, service utilization, and cost of services between a continuum
of mental health services provided by the demonstration project and a
traditional service system. |
