Research into posttraumatic stress disorder is discussed from the perspective of clinically relevant measures to be included in future outcome research. It is concluded that studies into the effects of treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder should include measures for co-morbidity, impairment and quality of life. Further, recommendations are made to investigate moderator and mediator variables affecting outcome of treatment in trauma victims, including social support, personality traits, and cognitive characteristics. It is recommended to use theoretically derived variables, rather than available base-line characteristics. Further, these moderators and mediators should be studied in specific groups of trauma patients, rather than in patients who have experienced a variety of traumatic events of varying severity levels [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
