Namun, kuesioner tersebut belum pernah digunakan di Indonesia.Tujuan. Mengetahui reliabilitas instrumen post traumatic stress disoder reaction index (PTSD-RI) versi remaja, prevalensi, serta faktoryang berhubungan dengan PTSD.Metode. Penelitian potong lintang dilaksanakan di enam SMUN di Denpasar. Digunakan kuesioner PTSD-RI versi remaja yangtelah diterjemahkan ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia.

Enam puluh orang (20%) dengan tersangka PTSD. ReliabilitasPTSD-RI baik (koefisien α 0,94). Tipe kepribadian tertutup sebagai faktor risiko PTSD [RP 3,55 (IK95% 1,46-8,66), p=0,01].Keluarga yang harmonis [RP 0,35 (IK95% 0,08-0,78), p=0,02], adanya dukungan keluarga [RP 0,13 (IK95% 0,03-0,50), p=0,01],adanya dukungan sosial [RP 0,25 (IK95% 0,09-0,68), p=0,01], serta trauma tunggal [RP 0,02 (IK95% 0,14- 0,82), p=0,01] berperansebagai faktor protektif PTSD.Kesimpulan.

The City

Chapter five reconsiders Chandler’s own war experience to show that Marlowe, like his creator, displayed symptoms of combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Examining the novels for these manifestations, Marlowe’s symptoms appear to fall into the three separate symptom-related categorizations of PTSD. This chapter will also demonstrate how the game of chess becomes a metaphor for the city of Los Angeles that enables the troubled detective to locate himself within a structured and orderly environment. Marlowe reassess and reviews his own case-related actions and dealings by evaluating his movements on the chessboard.
