Abstract

Psychiatric clinic outpatients were screened for recent traumatic events, and post‐traumatic symptomatology was evaluated in those reporting occurrence of one or more events within the two years prior to screening. Clear symptoms of post‐traumatic stress disorder were revealed in 18% of the reporting patients, and the distribution of diagnoses was found to be different in the trauma‐reporting group than it was in a comparison diagnostic group. 1992 American Orthopsychiatric Association
