Abstract
This study protocol outlines a research project aimed at investigating the two assessment tools for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex PTSD (CPTSD) based on the ICD-11 framework: the International Trauma Interview (ITI) and the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ). The study is conducted at two specialized outpatient clinics in Denmark, focusing on trauma-affected civilians and refugees.
With a sample size of 100 participants, equally divided between the two clinics, the study has three primary objectives: (1) to assess the feasibility of implementing the ITI in clinical settings by evaluating clinician time expenditure and clinical utility; (2) to determine the prevalence and diagnostic consistency of ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD as measured by the ITI and ITQ; and (3) to compare the two study populations on various sociodemographic and clinical variables, including trauma history, mental health symptoms, and functional outcomes. This study employs a mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative data collection through standardized measures and qualitative insights from clinician focus groups. Results will contribute to the growing body of evidence on PTSD and CPTSD diagnosis, providing insights into the clinical utility of the ITI and the ITQ for diverse trauma-affected populations.
