Abstract

Digital terror refers to the use of digital technology to disseminate graphic images of acts of violence to frighten the public. On October 7, 2023, militants of the Palestinian organization Hamas launched a brutal attack on Israel and used digital terror to magnify their acts. Although the purposeful spreading of terror via digital means is not new, the Hamas attack was significant for the scope, immediacy, and widespread dissemination of its digital content. This column aims to describe and analyze the psychological significance of this new form of terror, the public mental health challenges raised, and the interventions needed to assist those exposed to digital terror.

数字恐怖:数字恐怖:对公众心理健康的惊人影响》(Digital Terror: Its Striking Impact on Public Mental Health)。
数字恐怖是指利用数字技术传播暴力行为的图像,以恐吓公众。2023 年 10 月 7 日,巴勒斯坦组织哈马斯(Hamas)的武装分子对以色列发动了野蛮袭击,并利用数字恐怖手段放大了他们的行为。尽管通过数字手段有目的地传播恐怖并不是什么新鲜事,但哈马斯的这次袭击因其数字内容的范围、即时性和广泛传播而意义重大。本专栏旨在描述和分析这种新恐怖形式的心理意义、引发的公共心理健康挑战,以及帮助那些受到数字恐怖袭击的人所需的干预措施。

期刊介绍: Psychiatric Services, established in 1950, is published monthly by the American Psychiatric Association. The peer-reviewed journal features research reports on issues related to the delivery of mental health services, especially for people with serious mental illness in community-based treatment programs. Long known as an interdisciplinary journal, Psychiatric Services recognizes that provision of high-quality care involves collaboration among a variety of professionals, frequently working as a team. Authors of research reports published in the journal include psychiatrists, psychologists, pharmacists, nurses, social workers, drug and alcohol treatment counselors, economists, policy analysts, and professionals in related systems such as criminal justice and welfare systems. In the mental health field, the current focus on patient-centered, recovery-oriented care and on dissemination of evidence-based practices is transforming service delivery systems at all levels. Research published in Psychiatric Services contributes to this transformation.
