ABSTRACT There is evidence that the more frequent, severe, and chronic posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptomatology experienced by Black compared to White individuals cannot be explained by disparities in socioeconomic status or trauma exposure. One factor that may be important to consider is racial discrimination, which is associated with numerous negative mental health outcomes yet has not

ABSTRACT Trauma recovery for racial and ethnic groups experiencing ongoing systemic violence and discrimination requires a framework that simultaneously addresses harms and strengths. Historical trauma (HT) is a social determinant of health emanating from targeted mass group-level harm. Posttraumatic growth (PTG) focuses on positive shifts in individuals coping with trauma.

Developmental Pathways from Childhood Maltreatment to Young Adult Romantic Relationship Functioning J. Trauma Dissociation (IF 1.859) Pub Date : 2021-01-21 Michael Fitzgerald
ABSTRACT Childhood abuse has been suggested to potentiate a maladaptive developmental trajectory, leaving adolescents and young adults at risk for mental health and romantic relationship problems. It has been suggested that mental health problems mediate the relationship between childhood abuse and young adult romantic relationship functioning; however, there are few prospective studies. The objective

Split-mirror gazing increases dissociative states and illusions of self-identity J. Trauma Dissociation (IF 1.859) Pub Date : 2021-01-20 Giovanni B. Caputo
ABSTRACT Previous studies found that mirror-gazing at the subject’s reflected own face, under a low illumination level, produces acute dissociation. In the present study, a split-mirror was used, which divides the subject’s reflected face vertically into two half-faces, and dissociative states were compared to single-mirror gazing. Twelve healthy naïve individuals, who were sampled from students of

ABSTRACT In this study of 624 adult participants from the general population (i.e., a community sample), we examine adult disorganized attachment, a construct that can now be measured on a self-report scale, and its linkage between child abuse to dissociation.

ABSTRACT Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), an illness characterized by multiple personality states, has long been a controversial diagnosis within the psychiatric community. Demonstrating a neuroanatomical basis for the disorder may help to resolve the controversy.
