How much one event
still resonates —
right now.
IES-R measures the current impact of one specific traumatic event across three dimensions. 22 questions. Five pages. Seven days. One event.
Not what happened.
How the nervous system
is carrying it — now.
IES-R measures the current impact of a specific traumatic event across three dimensions. Re-experiencing. Avoidance. Arousal. These aren't labels — they're circuits. And what runs through circuits can be redirected.
The timeframe is seven days. Not your whole history. Just: right now, what is the load this single event is putting on your nervous system?
“A score is the snapshot. Two scores four weeks apart are the trajectory. The trajectory is where the clinical picture becomes clear.”
Name the event.
All 22 questions refer to one experience. Not your history — this one event. The more specific the reference, the more precise the picture. This field is required to begin.
