Objectives：The goals of this study were to describe both the prevalence of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among and the demographic characteristics of North Korean defectors. Methods：All subjects were North Korean defectors who had just entered the Republic of Korea. 193 subjects were recruited from a two-month resettlement and training program which had been operated by the government. PTSD criteria were determined using the Structured. Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID). We also applied the 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) and the 14-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAMA). Results：17.6% (34/191) of subjects met the diagonostic criteria for full PTSD and 14.5% (28/191) for partial PTSD. However, there were no statistical differences between the three diagnostic groups with respect to age, gender, marriage, or time spent in other countries. Conclusion：Recent North Korean defectors to the Republic of Korea have a moderately high rate of PTSD, a finding comparable to that reported in other studies. It is quite likely these individuals require ongoing treatment in addition to educational experience and training in order to fit into South Korean society.
