Objective:
To investigate psychopathology and diagnostic efficiency with MMPI- PK scale for patients with stress disorder(SD).Methods:
MMPI- 2s were administered to forty- three in patients with SD and forty- four well- adjusted trauma survivors as controls.Results:
Patients with SD obtained significantly higher PK scores than controls. Gender, types of traumatic events and types of diagnoses for patients with SD did not substantially influence PK scores. When an optimal cut- off point of 17 was utilized, sensitivity and specificity obtained by PK assessment are respectively 94.9% and 66.7%.Conclusion:
Patients with SD and trauma survivors show significantly different psychopathology. PK scale was sen- sitive to the assessment of posttraumatic stress symptoms though it produced more false- positive than false- negative errors.
