Description
The City Birth Trauma Scale (City BiTS-F) was developed to assess posttraumatic stress disorder following childbirth (PTSD-FC), based on the PTSD criteria of the DSM-5. Recent studies investigating the latent factor structure of PTSD-FC symptoms in women reported mixed results. Given that no validated French questionnaire exists to measure PTSD-FC symptoms, this study first aimed to validate the French version of the CBTS (City BiTS-F). Second, it aims to establish the latent factor structure of PTSD-FC.
This dataset contains data on the mental health (i.e., PTSD-CB, depression, anxiety) of 541 mothers who gave birth during the last 12 months. Sociodemegraphic data such as maternal age, marital status, educational level, parity, gravidity, weeks of gestation, type of delivery, history of traumatic childbirth, or history of traumatic event is available.
