Development and Initial Validation of the Social Impression Comparison Scale (Sics)
Perceived social impressions – namely, how individuals believe they come across in social situations – are often evaluated by engaging in social comparison.

Therefore, we developed and validated the Social Impression Comparison Scale (SICS) that assesses the frequency of upward and downward social comparison…

Complex Sequelae of Psychological Trauma Among Kosovar Civilian War Victims

Methods: In the present study, 102 civilian war victims were interviewed in Kosovo, assessing traumatic life events, PTSD, DESNOS, and depression. Results: Full DESNOS rarely occurred (2% prevalence…
