Abstract

Experience of war, terrorism, genocide and politicide manifests in suffering of the victims and survivors. Nevertheless, it is argued here, that, in engaging with these patients, we have to adopt an action theory informed conceptualization of the life of our clients and patients mobilizing their action resources and competences. After describing some experiences with victims of torture, their PTSD symptoms and suicidality are taken as an example to illustrate the contribution of action theory to understanding PTSD and to preventing suicide. This is a review of our research and psychotherapy practice of past four decades.

受害者与行动：基于四十年临床研究和实践的个人观点。

战争、恐怖主义、种族灭绝和政治谋杀的经历给受害者和幸存者带来了痛苦。尽管如此，本文认为，在与这些病人接触时，我们必须采用行动理论，对客户和病人的生活进行概念化，调动他们的行动资源和能力。在描述了与酷刑受害者的一些经历之后，我们将以他们的创伤后应激障碍症状和自杀行为为例，说明行动理论对理解创伤后应激障碍和预防自杀的贡献。这是对我们过去四十年研究和心理治疗实践的回顾。
