The number of refugees and asylum seekers in Serbia is significantly increasing. Many have
experienced traumatic events and suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder and depression. In
order to provide them with adequate assistance, caregivers need adjusted assessment tools.
The main goal of this research was the adaptation of the Harvard Trauma Questionnaire
for working with refugees and asylum seekers in Serbia. A total of 16 focus groups were
interviewed in two phases in order to create an adequate list of traumatic events for this
population. The adapted list was subsequently administered to 226 persons seeking asylum
in Serbia, along with the remaining parts of HTQ, HSCL-25 and BDI-II. Results show that
the adapted list of traumatic events, as well as a shorter version, has good validity and other
metric properties. The adaptation of the first assessment tool for working with refugees and
asylum seekers in Serbia has significant practical implications.
