CTDA 1006: Validation of the Acute Stress Checklist for Children (ASC-Kids) in English & Spanish in Children Age 8 to 17, United States, 2007-2010

Validated Spanish-language measures of child traumatic stress are needed to assess Spanish-speaking children in the United States. This study built on the development of self-report checklist measures for acute stress disorder (ASD) in children, primarily the Acute Stress Checklist for Children (ASC-Kids), in English and Spanish. The prospective study assessed the reliability, validity, and factor structure of these child self-report measures by enrolling parallel samples of English- and Spanish-speaking children and adolescents (age 8-17 years) recruited in inpatient and outpatient settings associated with academic medical centers in the United States.
