Traumatic Life Events Questionnaire (TLEQ)
Description
Traumatic Life Events Questionnaire (TLEQ) [Kubany 2000] includes an assessment of the various
frequencies and severity of traumatic experiences in adulthood. This self-report instrument was
rigorously tested in studies recruiting college students, combat veterans, and battered women and was
found to demonstrate excellent psychometric properties. This data set includes the three TLEQ subscale
scores (for 3 measured dimensions).
Refer to the data codebook for the detailed information of each variable.
Study Sample
223 participants
Data Collection Methods
TLEQ was administered on the second clinic evaluation day. The scores were derived from the raw
responses later.
