Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in the PTSD Checklist (PCL) at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeksA measure of PTSD severity, which is the PTSD Checklist. Total score range is 17 to 85, with a higher score indicating greater psychopathology. Change scores were calculated.
SecondaryChange in the HSCL Anxiety Scale at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeks
A measure of anxiety severity, which is the HSCL Anxiety Scale. Each item is rated on a 1-4 Likert-type scale, with a higher score indicating worse psychopathology. Mean scale scores were used, giving a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 4. Change scores were calculated.
SecondaryChange in the HSCL Depression Scale at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeks
A measure of depression severity, which is the HSCL Depression Scale. Each item is rated on a 1-4 Likert-type scale, with a higher score indicating worse psychopathology. Mean scale scores were used, giving a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 4. Change scores were calculated.
SecondaryChange in the SCL Anger Severity at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeks
A measure of anger severity, which is the SCL Anger Scale. Each item is rated on a 0-4 Likert-type scale, with a higher score indicating worse psychopathology. Mean scale scores were used, giving a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 4. Change scores were calculated.
SecondaryChange in the Cambodian Culturally Sensitive Complaint Profile at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeks
A measure of somatic symptoms and cultural syndromes commonly found among distressed Cambodian refugees. Each item is rated on a 0-4 Likert-type scale, with a higher score indicating worse psychopathology. Mean scale scores were used, giving a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 4. Change scores were calculated.
SecondaryChange in the SF-12 at 12 Weeks in Step IIBaseline and 12 weeksA measure of severity of self-perceived functioning. Total score ranges from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating better self-perceived functioning. Change scores were calculated.
