Abstract

El estudio tuvo por objetivo comparar criterios DSM-IV, DSM-5 y criterios alternativos de TEPT, en tres muestras independientes con la finalidad de analizar la idoneidad de estos. La muestra se configuró con 361 menores entre los 8 y 18 años (122 muestra comunitaria; 86 menores habían sufrido maltrato intrafamiliar crónico y 153 menores expuestos a violencia de género). De la totalidad de la muestra el 52.9% (n = 191) eran chicas y el 47.1% (n = 170) chicos. Se administró la escala CPSS (Child PTSD Symptom Scale). Los resultados evidenciaron una mejor valoración diagnóstica del TEPT utilizando los criterios alternativos en las diferentes edades y en los diferentes grupos muestrales. Parece necesario una revisión exhaustiva de los criterios diagnósticos TEPT actuales en la etapa de la infancia y la adolescencia.
