Herramienta de Evaluación de la Polivictimización
Esta Herramienta de Evaluación de la Polivictimización (Herramienta de Evaluación) fue desarrollada para examinar todas las experiencias de trauma y victimización de la vida de una persona, desde la niñez hasta la edad adulta. La Herramienta de Evaluación cubre 27 eventos y 18 secciones, cada una dividida en tres categorías (niñez y adolescencia, adultx, y en el último año). La categoría de síntomas permite al personal clasificar los síntomas actuales y permite una comprensión histórica profunda de cuándo se desarrollaron estos síntomas y cuánto tiempo han estado presentes en la vida.
