Stress response syndromes

TL;DR: The DSM-III (American Psychiatric Association, 1980) diagnoses for stress-response disorders, and the mutual etiologic effects of stressful life events, psychiatric disorders and preexisting conflicts or functional deficits are discussed in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Event Scale: a cross-validation study and some empirical evidence supporting a conceptual model of stress response syndromes.

TL;DR: A cross-validational study on the Impact of Event Scale confirmed the scale's relevance, internal consistency, and sensitivity, and data are interpreted as consistent with a clinically derived theoretical model of the pattern of response to serious life events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Event Scale: psychometric properties.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the IES's two-factor structure is stable over different types of events, that it can discriminate between stress reactions at different times after the event, and that it has convergent validity with observer-diagnosed post-traumatic stress disorder.
