Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study is based on the report including the psychological assessment results and therapeutic interventions of the survivors from hijacked Samho Jewerly by Somali pirates on January 15th, 2011.
Methods: We first assessed the emotional, cognitive, and personality functions of 7 crews, took 4-sessions of cognitive behavioral therapeutic intervention, conducted after-treatment assessments, and compared them with the previous results.
Results: Some of the crew showed PTSD due to the exposure to the stress triggered by the extreme state of fear, presented reexperience, avoidance of the trauma and chronical arousal state.
Conclusion: Although this study was investigated with the minority group related to the one single accident, each case revealed the changes of symptoms and course after the trauma. The same traumatic event had different influences as how each individual perceived the experience. Furthermore, each clinical course was individually different either, depending on age, psychological resource, social support, daily life stress, or secondary gain.
