As during eight years of imposed war, Kermanshah city was destroyed of aerial bombardment of the enemy and it was under aerial and missile attack. The research objective is to determine the condition of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) of imposed war in the population of Kermanshah city.

Or they encountered with stress full factors of war. By clustering sampling method, 5110 people were selected as research sample. To collect data, researcher-built inventory consisting of 3 parts of demographic, disorder symbols and health condition of people was used. Experienced questioners after passing face-to –face-training courses collected the required data by going to the houses. The results showed that 26% of research sample were suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) of imposed war.
