In the context of a transnational project, a questionnaire was developed and tested. This questionnaire could be used by staff members of service provider institutions for a first diagnosis of PTSD among refugees. A very short – 15 minutes – training enabled service providers to become familiar with the questionnaire, and consequently they could use this tool for monitoring PTSD symptoms among their clients.

Objectives

To develop an easy-to-use tool for PTSD diagnosis

Length

1 year 6 months ( 1 September 2012 – 28 February 2014)

Requirements/ accessibility issues

The testing phase included a testing of the questionnaire with 2500 refugees.

Performance procedures

500 volunteers and/or staff members of service provider institutions were trained.

Results
