Actual (reported)Kiddie-Sads-Present and Lifetime (KSADS-PL) Scale for PTSD
Change in PTSD parameters as determined by changes in score. At enrollment, participants either did or did not have a PTSD diagnosis. The three categories displayed show participants who had the PTSD diagnosis at the time of enrollment but did have evidence of PTSD at the end of their participation, participants who had PTSD at enrollment and who continued to exhibit PTSD at the end of their participation, and those who did not have a PTSD diagnosis at the start of the trial. There are numerous criteria used to determine a PTSD diagnosis; they are not individually listed. The diagnosis was sufficient for the purposes of the study.
