Popis: Posttraumatski stresni poremecaj je u novijoj literaturi definiran kao skup specificnih simptoma koji se javljaju u nekih osoba, nakon što su izravno ili kao svjedoci bile izložene nekom traumaticnom iskustvu koje bi za vecinu ljudi bilo jako traumaticno, i na to iskustvo su reagirale snažnim strahom, osjecajem bespomocnosti ili užasnutosti. Razvoj simptoma ovog poremecaja odreen je karakteristikama licnosti izložene osobe, vrstom i jacinom traume, ulogom koju je osoba imala tijekom traumatskog dogaaja, kao i karakteristikama okoline. Utvrivanje postojanja posttraumatskog poremecaja u neke osobe moguce je provesti nizom standardiziranih instrumenata. Iako je u literaturi dostupan znatan broj istraživanja koja proucavaju ovaj poremecaj kao i njegove razlicite aspekte, gotovo je nemoguce pronaci ona koja se bave ovim poremecajem u populaciji osoba oštecena vida. Stoga se sa sigurnošcu nije moglo tvrditi da su instrumenti, prikladni za utvrivanje PTSP-a u opcoj populaciji, jednako pouzdani i kod osoba oštecena vida u kojih se ocekuje pojavnost ovog poremecaja. Kako bi se utvrdila pouzdanost W-PTSD instrumenta za osobe oštecena vida koje su proživjele traumatsko iskustvo bilo je potrebno uz ovaj instrument primjeniti i dodatni standardizirani instrument za utvrivanje PTSP-a. U tu svrhu upotrijebljen je LASC-01 upitnik. Rezultatima istraživanja, koje je provedeno na 28 slijepih invalida Domovinskog rata, utvreno ja da na oba upitnika u podrucju varijabli koje mjere PTSP ispitanici postižu slicne rezultate. Na osnovi toga moguce je zakljuciti da se instrument W-PTSD može s pravom koristiti za utvrivanje PTSP-a u populaciji osoba oštecena vida.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder has been defined in the more recent literature as a set of the specific symptoms occurring in some individuals, after they have been exposed directly or as witnesses to a traumatic experience that would be very traumatic for the most persons. Their reaction to such experience was strong fear, feeling of helplessness or horror. The development of the symptoms of such disorder is determined by the traits of the personality of the exposed individual, type and intensity of the trauma, role that the person had during the traumatic incident, and the environment-circumstances. The existence of the posttraumatic disorder in a person can be identified with a number of the standardized instruments. Although there is a significant number of research works available in the literature studying this disorder and its various aspects, it is almost impossible to find those dealing with this disorder in the population of the persons with vision impairments. Therefore, it could not be established with certainty whether the instruments adequate to identify PTSP in the general population were equally reliable concerning the persons with vision impairments that were likely to manifest such disorder. In order to determine the reliability of the W-PTSD instruments for the persons suffering from vision impairments that had been exposed to the traumatic experience it was necessary to apply along with this instrument also the additional standardized instrument to determine PTSP. The LASC-01 questionnaire was used for this purpose. It was determined based on the results of the research that was carried out on 28 blind persons disabled in the Croatian War of Independence that in both questionnaires in the area of the PTSP measuring variables the respondents had similar results. The conclusion that can be made based on this is that the W-PTSD instrument is the proper instrument to be used to determine PTSP in the population of the persons with vision impairments.
