This study assessed 24 victims of the 1992 Hurricane Iniki for PTSD symptoms and physiological reactivity, six to eight weeks following the storm. 47.8% of subjects met full PTSD criteria using the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-1), a DSM-III-R-based structured interview, 26.1% of subjects had partial PTSD, and 26.1% had no PTSD symptoms. A significant main effect (Skin Conductance by CAPS diagnosis) was found for portions of a Multi-Sensory Interview. Additional findings are discussed
