TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Validation of the Impact of Event Scale on a sample of American Vietnam veterans JO - Psychological reports A1 - Hendrix, C. C. A1 - Jurich, A. P. A1 - Schumm, Walter R. SP - 321 EP - 322 VL - 75 IS - 1 N2 - The goal of the present report is to validate the Impact of Event Scale for use as a measure of the enduring nature of reactions to combat stress by 60 American Vietnam veterans. Validity was supported through significant correlations with measures of abusive violence and combat exposure. From factor analysis a single factor (general level of distress) supported the validity of the scale and thereby further use with Vietnam veterans.
