N2  - The aim of this research is to measure the PTSD value of car accident offenders by gender. This study focused on the effects of physical injury and criminal penalty using the diagnostic criteria of PTSD presented in DSM-5. Assessment via PTSD checklist (PCL-5) on participants (N=428) indicated no gender differences by total PTSD value. However, PTSD value of female offenders was more severe than of male offenders. Multiple regression analysis test results indicate male offenders were affected positively by physical injury of others and negatively by criminal penalty. Female offenders were affected positively by others' physical injury. The results of regression analysis on the detailed diagnosis DSM-5 was similar in regression analysis by gender. The criteria method "negative cognitions and mood" indicates severity of physical injury on offenders affected both male and female offenders. Male offenders experienced the intrusion symptoms as if they encountered traffic accidents again, whereas PTSD of female offenders resulted in heightened arousal and reactivity. The study concludes with limitations and recommendations for future research.<p />  <p>Language: ko</p>
