Description
Presenter: Dr. Marylene Cloitre
Overview.
The credibility of the Complex PTSD diagnoses as recently proposed for the ICD-11 is supported by a growing empirical literature that includes the presence of distinct populations in adults (1) adolescents (2) and children (3) that manifest Complex PTSD as compared to PTSD symptom profiles. Complex PTSD populations are now known to be distinct from Borderline Personality Disorder populations with contrasting clinical features (4). The development of valid and reliable measurement of Complex PTSD is advancing (5, 6).
Objectives.
- Describe the differences between the ICD11 definition of PTSD versus Complex PTSD.
- Describe the types of trauma that create risk for Complex PTSD as compared to PTSD.
- Recognize differences between Complex PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder presentations.
