Trauma exposure and ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD in a Greenlandic adolescent population.

Little peer-reviewed research has been done on trauma exposure, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex PTSD (CPTSD) prevalence among Greenlandic children and adolescents. There is a need for a validated Greenlandic version of the International Trauma Questionnaire - Child and Adolescent version (ITQ-CA) to assess symptoms of ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD, as well as investigations of the prevalence of these disorders. This information is imperative in a Greenlandic context, where general epidemiological knowledge on traumatic exposure and reactions is lacking.

Greenlandic norms for the parent-report and self-report versions of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ).

The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a brief screening questionnaire of child behaviour, used to evaluate mental health. It is applicable for children 2-17 years, available to both parents and professionals, and exists in a self-report version available from the age of 11 years. This paper aims to generate Greenlandic norms on the self-report and parent-report versions of the SDQ.
