Abstract
The Self-rating inventory fur Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is a 22-item it em report questionnaire to give a diagnosis for PTSD based on DSM-IV criter ia. Originally, the questionnaire was standardized with trauma survivors an d psychiatric patients. Here test-retest reliabilities with 90 medial stude nts are reported for 15 (.79) and 19 days (.97). As expected, the stability was slightly less for 34 days (.60).
