To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of Children's Revised Impact of Event Scale (CRIES) and its applicability among Chinese children and adolescents, a study was conducted on two samples, the first, 1 month after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, the second, 7 months after the earthquake. High levels of posttraumatic stress symptoms were found among both groups of children. The results also showed a decline of intrusion and arousal symptoms in accordance with the different periods of time elapsed since the earthquake; however, no difference was found in the avoidance symptoms between the two samples. Both the subscales and the CRIES total showed moderate to good reliability. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of CRIES supported the presumed three inter-correlated factors model. However, the results of the second sample (with more than 6 months elapsed subsequent to the earthquake) are more likely to support this model than those of the first sample. This study generally justifies the use of CRIES as a screening instrument for probable PTSD victims among children and adolescents exposed to horrible natural disasters in China. Limitations of the present study and directions for future research are also discussed.
为了评估中文版儿童修订后的事件影响量表（CRIES）的心理计量学特性及其在中国儿童和青少年中的适用性，对两个样本进行了研究，第一个样本是在 2008 年四川地震后 1 个月，第二个样本是在地震后 7 个月。两组儿童均存在较高水平的创伤后应激症状。结果还表明，随着时间的推移，侵入和唤醒症状呈下降趋势；然而，两个样本之间的回避症状没有差异。CRIES 的各分量表和总分均表现出中等至良好的信度。CRIES 的验证性因子分析（CFA）支持假设的三个相互关联的因素模型。然而，第二个样本（地震后时间超过 6 个月）的结果比第一个样本更支持该模型。本研究总体上证明了 CRIES 可作为中国遭受可怕自然灾害的儿童和青少年中可能患有 PTSD 的筛查工具。还讨论了本研究的局限性和未来研究的方向。
