Full textAbstract:
This paper explores the applicability of a narrative approach to the understanding of psychological trauma and the process of recovery. We focus on a comparison of stories told by three survivors of sexual abuse in research interviews drawn from an ongoing study of recovery and resiliency in treated and untreated trauma survivors. Our aim is to learn how survivors make and remake the meaning of their experiences over the course of their lives and at different stages in their recovery, and to understand the role and functions of survivors’ stories in the recovery process. Replacing long-standing feelings of powerlessness with a new sense of agency and reclaiming a positive identity from a “damaged”self-definition are neither easy nor painless tasks. These accounts suggest the importance of “turning points”that open possibilities for sexual abuse survivors to restory their experiences and arrive at new understandings that support their efforts to confront and deal with past traumas, and move on with their lives. We also call for more attention—by researchers, therapists, and others in survivors’ lives—to the effects of our expectations and needs for coherent stories with positive endings that may make it difficult for us to “hear”what survivors are trying to tell us.

Full textAbstract:
Neo-Victorian narratives of trauma display a temporal duplicity in addressing nineteenthcentury traumas that still prevail at present, including natural catastrophes, wars, or more personal and insidious traumas, such as domestic violence and oppression, or child and sexual abuse. In this article, I argue that Guillermo del Toro’s neo-Victorian film Crimson Peak (2015) is constructed as a trauma narrative that exploits the trope of «the uncanny» (Freud 1919) and its main representations –i.e. the double, the return of the dead and repetition compulsion– to address the traumatic experience of gender violence and its impact on both Victorian and contemporary women. Furthermore, I contend that the film functions as a symbolical space where the audience can bear witness to and reflect on the multitemporal trauma of gender violence. That way, viewers can bear witness and develop empathy towards survivors of this traumatic experience.

- In response to a concern that the impact of the Holocaust will not be recognized by psychotherapists treating survivors, several psychoanalysts who were refugees from Nazi Germany devoted a great deal of time and effort to detailing the psychopathological consequences of the Holocaust trauma. Considering the magnitude of the trauma, it was not difficult to find evidence of psychopathology. However, because of their almost exclusive emphasis on psychopathology, most of these researchers failed to recognize the particular manner in which survivors mourned their enormous losses and made an effort to integrate their painful memories into the rest of their personality. This meant the loss of an opportunity to learn about the process of recovery following severe traumatization. The paper also described a hypothesis regarding the psychological mechanisms involved in adaptations to extreme conditions. From the author's point of view, this constituted a link in the survivors' effort to establish psychic continuity between their pre-Holocaust psychological organization and adaptations to a new life. Unlike her colleagues, the author believes that integration of traumatic memories was possible as long as the survivors encountered an empathic listening perspective and their effort to recover was validated. Survivors of trauma have every reason to expect that their stories will evoke fear, confusion, horror and disbelief and that therapists will protect themselves from these affects by resorting to generalizations or praise for the survivor's heroism or special qualities. Such responses however make it impossible for survivors to proceed, and the affects associated with the traumatic memory may never, or only partially, enter the therapeutic dialogue. Once recovered and articulated, the memories are accompanied by grief and anger, indicating that an increase in self-cohesion, a healing of the vertical split, has allowed the previously feared affects to enter consciousness. From the author's viewpoint, feeling anger is an expectable and healthy response in this context. Justified anger is not to be confused with chronic narcissistic rage, which can constitute the nucleus of severe personality disorders.Key words: Holocaust, trauma, traumatic memories, adaptation, integration, empathic listening.Parole chiave: Olocausto, trauma, ricordi traumatici, adattamento, integrazione, ascolto empatico.

Aims and MethodTo evaluate the effectiveness of treatment at the Traumatic Stress Service (TSS) by comparing pre- and post-treatment scores on patient self-report measures. Through a questionnaire survey, to explore therapists' views of problems presenting in addition to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and how, as a result, they adapted their approach to trauma work.ResultsTherapists reported that their patients present with a range of complex problems, and self-report measures show that patients suffer particularly high levels of psychopathology. Therapists identified a number of adaptations to trauma-focused work to deal with these additional problems. Of the 112 patients who completed therapy, 43% filled in pre- and post-treatment questionnaire measures. Analysis showed clinically and statistically significant improvements in levels of PTSD, depression and social functioning.Clinical ImplicationsThe typical presentation of trauma survivors is often not ‘simple’ PTSD, but PTSD resulting from chronic and multiple traumas and complicated by additional psychological and social difficulties. Adaptations to trauma-focused work can successfully treat such ‘complex’ PTSD.

Background: White blood cell (WBC) subtypes have been suggested to reflect patients’ immune-inflammatory status. Furthermore, the derived ratio of platelets and WBC subtypes, including monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), is proposed to be associated with patient outcome. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the association of platelets and white blood cells subtypes with the mortality outcome of trauma patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Method: The medical information from 2854 adult trauma patients admitted to the ICU between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2019 were retrospectively retrieved from the Trauma Registry System and classified into two groups: the survivors group (n = 2524) and the death group (n = 330). The levels of monocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, and blood-drawn laboratory data detected upon patient arrival to the emergency room and the derived MLR, NLR, and PLR were calculated. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent effects of univariate predictive variables on mortality occurrence. Result: The results revealed the patients who died had significantly lower platelet counts (175,842 ± 61,713 vs. 206,890 ± 69,006/μL, p < 0.001) but higher levels of lymphocytes (2458 ± 1940 vs. 1971 ± 1453/μL, p < 0.001) than the surviving patients. However, monocyte and neutrophil levels were not significantly different between the death and survivor groups. Moreover, dead patients had a significantly lower PLR than survivors (124.3 ± 110.3 vs. 150.6 ± 106.5, p < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in MLR or NLR between the dead patients and the survivors. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that male gender, old age, pre-existing hypertension, coronary artery disease and end-stage renal disease, lower Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), higher Injury Severity Score (ISS), higher level of lymphocytes and lower level of red blood cells and platelets, longer activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and lower level of PLR were independent risk factors associated with higher odds of trauma patient mortality outcome in the ICU. Conclusion: This study revealed that a higher lymphocyte count, lower platelet count, and a lower PLR were associated with higher risk of death in ICU trauma patients.

Un grand nombre de patients douloureux chroniques présentent un trauma psychique sous-jacent. La plainte douloureuse vient souvent être une demande de soins psychiques qui ne peut se dire, dans un premier temps, que par le biais du corps. Cela amène fréquemment ces patients à être en difficulté pour trouver un lieu de soins. À travers l’histoire de Noémie, rescapée d’un génocide et exilée en France, nous constatons combien il est nécessaire d’entendre le trauma à travers une écoute conjointe du corps douloureux et de la psyché.

Full textAbstract:
The article reveals the question of how the Denial of the Armenian Genocide disturbs the mourning process in its survivors and descendants. This setback might psychologically explain certain transformational phenomena in the Armenian society. The Denial of the Armenian Genocide makes the genocide perfect: those dead have disappeared, they have never existed, and therefore, those unrecognized deaths disturb the relationship between the survivors and their historical past.
According to the unconscious function of secrets and traumas, the existence of which is totally ignored, in third generations may develop affective inconsistent behaviours, problems unsolved in previous generations that are transmitted like psychological inheritance.
In Armenian phenomena, the normal mourning process has been disrupted and the permanent Denial of the Armenian Genocide establishes the consequences of the trauma from generation to generation such as unconscious feelings of guilt, repetitions and impulses that lead to reactions like accidents or suicides and psychosomatic and mental disorders.

Full textAbstract:
This article deals with Kovner’s graphic narrative Ezekiel’s World (2015) as a case of remediation and hypermediacy. The term ‘remediation’ refers to adaptations which involve the transformation of the original work into another medium. While some adaptations strive to eliminate the marks of the previous medium, others highlight the interplay between different media, resulting in ‘hypermediacy’. The latter approach characterizes Ezekiel’s World due to its unique blend of artistic materials adapted from different media. The author, Michael Kovner, uses his paintings to depict the story of Ezekiel – an imaginary figure based on his father, the poet Abba Kovner who was one of the leaders of the Jewish resistance movement during World War II. While employing the conventions of comics and graphic narratives, the author also makes use of readymade objects such as maps and photos, simulates the works of famous artists and quotes Abba Kovner’s poems. These are indirect ways of confronting the traumas of Holocaust survivors and ‘the second generation’. Dealing with the Holocaust in comics and graphic narratives (as in Spiegelman’s Maus: A Survivor’s Tale, 1986) is no longer an innovation, nor is their use as a means to deal with trauma; what makes this graphic narrative unique is the encounter between the works of the poet and the painter, which combine to create an exceptionally complex work integrating poetry, art and graphic narration.

Full textAbstract:
Deaf individuals experience significant obstacles to participating in behavioral health research when careful consideration is not given to accessibility in the design of study methodology. To inform such considerations, we conducted a secondary analysis of a mixed-methods study that explored 16 Deaf trauma survivors’ help-seeking experiences. Our objective was to identify key findings and qualitative themes from consumers' own words that can be applied to the design of behavioral clinical trials methodology. In many ways, the themes that emerged are what we would expect of any research participant, Deaf or hearing – a need for communication access, empathy, respect, strict confidentiality procedures, trust, and transparency of the research process. However, additional considerations must be made to better recruit, retain, and engage Deaf trauma survivors. We summarize our findings in a “Checklist for Designing Deaf Behavioral Clinical Trials” to operationalize the steps researchers should take to apply Deaf-friendly approaches in their empirical work.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines how SFBT can help individuals or groups that have been affected by war or internal conflict overcome and deal with challenges inherent in their circumstances. SFBT is an approach that empowers people and helps people affected by war move toward what they want for themselves and for each other. This chapter describes how SFBT appeals to people across cultures, experiences, and values and is applicable in any situation where people are looking for something better for themselves or others they care about. This chapter discusses how SFBT practitioners use a positive, collaborative, hopeful stance with people affected by war. Looking for exceptions to the problems people bring, as well as previous solutions, strengths, resources, and abilities their clients already have, complimenting people and asking questions with a future orientation is explored in the chapter.

Full textAbstract:
In this chapter, Mariko Hori Tanaka focuses on how Beckett responds to the imagined nuclear winter inherent in the global competition in the production of nuclear bombs and energy during the Cold War years. Many of his post-war plays including Endgame and Happy Days are clearly set in a post-apocalyptic world, where the only human survivors are the onstage characters. The earth uninhabited and the landscape of ruins with the last remaining human beings barely alive are suggested in many of Beckett’s works. Our post-holocaust world is filled with repeated disasters such as wars, conflicts, and natural disasters, so that we endlessly feel a sense of apocalypse. Beckett’s sense of men and women living in worsening conditions towards the unseen ending is the global anxiety shared in the late twentieth to the twenty-first century. Beckett’s imagination of dead victims ruined and suffering in some traumatic event (which he never clarifies) reminds us, the audience and the readers, of those who suffered and died in apocalyptic disasters. This chapter thus deals with the recent cultural traumas globally shared in our age.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on how discussions and debates about trauma often inadvertently erase victims' experiences and identities in order to identify real victims. Victims' memoirs say a great deal about how their authors are made to feel that they impose on others, become objects of contempt or pity by virtue of their demands, or have experiences whose painfulness is blotted out by those who care the most for them. These erasures, which mean “our” often inadvertent refusal to acknowledge fully victims' past or present suffering, are rarely discussed, and certainly not in terms of the discomfort victims arouse. Moreover, these erasures are repeated, ironically, in diverse disciplinary discourses, all of which seek to recover the survivor's experience.

Full textAbstract:
The diagnosis of a life-threatening condition in a young child (including the unborn) brings staggering grief when the prognosis predicts the likelihood of an early death. The diagnoses range from genetic or chromosomal disorders that will cause death either during pregnancy or shortly after birth to malignancy, severe prematurity, and trauma, among others. Perinatal and pediatric palliative care are discussed from the standpoint of relationship, highlighting nursing care that focuses on a theory of teaching and learning—guided participation. As family members learn to deal with their own and their child’s suffering and physical condition, the nurse joins with them in identifying how relational, task-related, and emotional competencies can be attained and maintained by establishing new goals (regoaling) and hopes. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss grief as a life-long, relational process. The trajectory of grief reflects how survivors of loving relationships maintain closeness and connection, cherishing dear ones who are no longer physically present. The authors highlight grief theory and provide examples of clinical application. Chapter content also includes practical strategies for grief assessment and supporting bereaved parents and children. Finally, the authors focus on how healthcare providers are affected by the intensity of bearing witness to the child’s, family’s, and other team members’ suffering.

Full textAbstract:
The Schild site in west-central Illinois comprises two Mississippian cemeteries (ca. AD 1030), one of which includes the burial of a young male (SA117) without a left hand who was buried on the periphery of the cemetery. We suggest a complicated scenario including that the forearm was burned, resulting in loss of the hand, and we argue for a deviant social identity for this unfortunate young man. SA117 was not provided with grave goods—he was buried in a semi-flexed position, and his grave is unusual in that a fire was built over the grave fill. His marginalization and his disability may reflect outsider status; in fact, based on principal components analysis, his skull differs significantly from other Mississippian males. Several American Indian groups marked unusual causes of death in mortuary practices, and survivors of some kinds of trauma—for example, scalping—were treated as if dead. The use of fire in ordeals marked the transformation of captives into slaves or adopted members of the captor community; SA117 may have been such a person.

Full textAbstract:
At the base of all Holocaust testimony projects lies a common commitment: to record and preserve the stories of those who survived the catastrophe as told in their own voices. When it comes to survivors’ testimonies, the messenger is as important as the message. The first to subscribe to this reasoning was the American psychologist David Boder, who in 1946 set out to interview survivors in refugee camps across Western Europe. Equipped with what was then the state- of- the- art technology—an Armour Model 50 wire recorder—Boder went on to produce what was the first audio testimony of the Holocaust. The wire recorder, developed in the 1940s by Marvin Camras, Boder’s colleague at the Illinois Institute of Technology, for the U.S. military, was a portable and remarkably durable device that utilized thin steel wires rolled into spools to produce an electromagnetic recording (see Fig. 4.1 below). As Boder later commented, the device “offered a unique and exact means of recording the experiences of displaced persons. Through the wire recorder the displaced person could relate in his own language and in his own voice the story of his concentration camp life.” Studying wire- recorded narratives led him to devise a “traumatic index” by means of which “each narrative may be assessed as to the category and number of experiences bound to have a traumatizing effect upon the victim.” Boder’s 1949 monograph, I Did Not Interview the Dead, invites readers to find indications of trauma implicit in selected transcripts of recorded narratives. The premise seems to be that, to the extent that such traumatic impact exists, it should be discoverable textually. Yet the same technology that made Boder’s project ingenious was also the reason for its relative obscurity. Wire recording was soon to give way to tape recording, consequently condemning Boder’s wire spools to obsolescence and the testimonies they held to near oblivion. The short- lived medium precluded access to the recorded material.
