Dit protocol belicht verschillende aspecten van classificatie, screening en diagnostiek.

Moral injury merits further study to clarify its identification, prevalence, assessment and intersection with psychosocial and psychiatric problems. The present study investigated the screening potential of the Brief Moral Injury Screen (BMIS) in a sample of post‐9/11 veterans (N = 315) and comparatively evaluated how this tool, the Moral Injury Events Scale (MIES), and the Moral Injury Questionnaire‐Military Version (MIQ‐M) relate to psychiatric diagnoses and mental illness symptom severity.

Background

Military veterans are exposed to unique deployment stressors that can precipitate the onset of various psychological difficulties, including the perception that an important moral standard has been transgressed (i.e., potentially morally injurious events [PMIEs]) and the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Vulnerability to these outcomes may be related to individual differences in moral foundations, including those that function to protect the individual (i.e., individualizing) and those that function to protect the group (i.e., binding).

Background
Investigation of treatments that effectively treat adults with post-traumatic stress disorder from childhood experiences (Ch-PTSD) and are well tolerated by patients is needed to improve outcomes for this population.

Aims

The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two trauma-focused treatments, imagery rescripting (ImRs) and eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), for treating Ch-PTSD.

Op 11 juli 2020 is het precies 25 jaar geleden dat de genocide in Srebrenica zich voltrok. Meer dan 8.000 Bosnische Moslimmannen en jongens werden vermoord, het Nederlandse VN-bataljon Dutchbat hoorde hen te beschermen. Het is de grootste genocide in Europa sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog. 

Srebrenica is Nederlandse geschiedenis is een campagne die aandacht vraagt voor de Srebrenica genocide, de rol van Nederland en de 25-jarige herdenking hiervan in Nederland.

Patiënten met ernstige PTSS kampen vaak met emotieregulatie-problemen. Therapeuten kunnen daarom terughoudend zijn direct de trauma’s te behandelen uit angst dat patiënten overspoeld worden door emoties. Ze kiezen ervoor om eerst de emotieregulatie te verbeteren, in de veronderstelling dat patiënten daarna beter van de traumagerichte therapie kunnen profiteren.

Moral injury has developed in earnest since 2009 within psychology and military studies, especially through work with veterans of the U.S. military’s wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. A major part of this work is the attempt to identify means of healing, recovery, and repair for those morally injured by their experiences in combat (or similar situations).
