Controlled Trial of Psychotherapy for Congolese Survivors of Sexual Violence

Abstract

Controlled Trial of Psychotherapy for Congolese Survivors of Sexual Violence Original Article, N Engl J Med 2013;368:2182-2191. Throughout the article, the measure used to assess PTSD symptoms should have been referred to as the Harvard Trauma Questionnaire, rather than the PTSD Checklist (or PTSD Checklist — Civilian Version). Also, reference 19 (page 2190) should have read, “Mollica RF, Caspi-Yavin Y, Bollini P, Truong T, Tor S, Lavelle J. The Harvard Trauma Questionnaire: validating a cross-cultural instrument for measuring torture, trauma, and posttraumatic stress disorder in Indochinese refugees. J Nerv Ment Dis 1992;180:111-6,” rather than “Weathers FW, Litz BT, Huska JA, Keane TM. PTSD Checklist — Civilian Version. Boston: National Center for PTSD, 1991.” The article is correct at NEJM.org.
