TSI-2: Trauma Symptom Inventory 2 Kit

The Trauma Symptom Inventory – 2nd Edition (TSI-2) is an instrument designed for the assessment of acute and chronic posttraumatic symptomatology in adults aged 18 to 88. It helps clinicians gain a clearer understanding of trauma-related psychological sequelae—including PTSD, emotional dysregulation, and somatic complaints—following various forms of trauma such as abuse, violence, accidents, and loss. This tool provides professional teams with a framework that facilitates comprehensive trauma assessment and allows them to tailor intervention and support based on nuanced trauma profiles.
