PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 10 weeks post-randomization

Population: We had 3 children not complete the intervention and 4 controls not complete the final data collection as shown in participant flow.

17 items listing potential PTSD symptoms scored on a Likert scale of 0 to 3 with 0=Not at all and 3= 5 or more times a week. 7 additional yes/no questions ask if problems interfered with various activities. Higher score is worse. Range 0 to 80. We used the combined child report and parent report. The highest item score from either parent or child was summed.
