These experiences, in turn, are often associated with a range of psychological symptoms, as well as, in some cases, a more severe or complex ED presentation. In this article, we review both generic and more trauma-specific psychological tests that can be used to (a) identify clinically relevant trauma histories in the ED patient and (b) uncover trauma-relevant symptoms that may complicate or intensify a given instance of ED. We also discuss the clinical implications of a detailed trauma assessment, including its usefulness in guiding treatment for ED-trauma patients.", pages = "347-358(12)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/routledg/uedi/2007/00000015/00000004/art00006" doi = "doi:10.1080/10640260701454360" }
