Drawing on ten years intensive experience with adults and children presenting with PTSD and other disorders following a series of disasters, Yule emphasises the cognitive behavioural approach to PTSD and integrates important perspectives from social psychology, experimental cognitive psychology, neuropsychology and developmental psychology. Cross-cultural issues and issues in planning emergency responses to disasters are discussed. The controversy surrounding various short term and crisis interventions is critically presented.Diese Sammlung von Originalarbeiten zum post-traumatischen Streßsyndrom stützt sich auf eine 10-jährige Erfahrung der Autoren mit Kindern und Erwachsenen.

Why do the majority of people who are exposed to traumatic stress fail to develop PTSD? Is PTSD best regarded as a failure or delay in the natural processes of protection and recovery? This book represents the fruits of ten years? experience of working with the survivors of accidents and disasters. The contributors have all worked at the world-famous University of London Institute of Psychiatry?s unit for the study and treatment of PTSD, and thus combine here to present a coherent account of PTSD and its treatment, based largely on a social learning and cognitive behavioural framework. Perspectives from cognitive psychology and information processing, social psychology, developmental psychology, and neuropsychology are brought together to enlighten our understanding of PTSD, individual reactions, and treatment approaches. Cross-cultural issues and issues of disaster planning and emergency response are also covered.
