Does trauma event type matter in the assessment of traumatic load?

Figures & data

Figure 1. Ranking of traumatic events in decreasing order according to (a) RF-CI and (b) LASSO applied on the training sample (N = 441). Events within the first 15 ranks similarly found by RF-CI and LASSO are highlighted in grey.

Note: Only the first 15 and last 10 ranks of RF-CI are displayed. RF-CI = Random Forest Conditional Interference; LASSO = Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator.

Table 1. Correct predictions (in %) for RF-CI, LASSO and traumatic load.

	RF-CI	Traumatic load	LASSO
Accuracy	77.25	75.36	74.88
Error rate	22.75	24.64	25.12
Sensitivity	98.01	94.04	94.04
Specificity	25.00	28.33	26.67
