Increased hurricane losses due to growing population and wealth in coastal areas
After more than two decades of relatively little Atlantic hurricane activity, the past decade saw heightened hurricane activity and more than $150 billion in damage in 2004 and 2005.This paper normalizes mainland U.S. hurricane damage from 1900-2005 to 2005 values using two methodologies.A normalization provides an estimate of the damage that would occur if storms from the past made landfall under another year's societal conditions.Our methods us…
Assessment of a new self-rating scale for post-traumatic stress disorder
Background . In post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) there is a need for self-rating scales that are sensitive to treatment effects and have been tested in a broad range of trauma survivors. Separate measures of frequency and severity may also provide an advantage. Methods . Three hundred and fifty-three men and women completed the Davidson Trauma Scale (DTS), a 17-item scale measuring each DSM-IV symptom of PTSD on 5-point frequency and severit…
The Dysfunctional Attitude Scale (DAS)
In the first study, a combined sample of mature students, depressed and formerly depressed patients, and the patients first degree relatives completed either Form A or Form B of the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale (DAS). Factor analysis of the two sets of data suggest that, contrary to the original proposals, the two versions of the DAS are not equivalent when a wide range of respondents are sampled. A second study presents preliminary information a…
