abstract="This study reports on the reliability and validity for two measures developed for screening of symptoms in child sexual abuse (CSA)-the Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children-Screening Form (TSCC-SF) and the Trauma Symptom Checklist for Young Children-Screening Form (TSCYC-SF). The sample of 200 children and caregivers received outpatient treatment. Internal consistencies ranged from an alpha of 0.79-0.85. Concurrent validity was demonstrated by correlations with the TSCC and TSCYC. The TSCC-SF General Trauma (GT) was only correlated Child Behavior Checklist (r = .236 for the Anxious Depressed Scale with the TSCC GT; however, all Child Behavior Checklist scales correlated with the TSCYC GT ranging from.422 to.692, and with the SC with r = .713), and the Children's Attributional and Perceptual Scale. <br><br>FINDINGS support reliability and validity reported elsewhere. The TSCC-SF and TSCYC-SF show promise for screening and triage of CSA victims in many settings.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
