The case notes documenting the psychological well-being of 100 survivors of torture and other forms of organised state violence were analysed retrospectively. The most common diagnoses were post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), major depression, and somatoform disorders. Of these, PTSD showed the strongest association with experience of torture. It is possible that PTSD has a dimensional nature, and that reactions to different stressors are heterogeneous.
回顾性分析了记录100名酷刑和其他形式有组织国家暴力幸存者心理健康状况的病历。最常见的诊断是创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）、重度抑郁症和躯体形式障碍。其中，PTSD与酷刑经历的关联最为紧密。PTSD可能具有维度性质，并且对不同应激源的反应是异质性的。
