The purpose of this systematic review (SR) was to present the current state of research on historical trauma, and the topics closely related to its semantic space that include intergenerational trauma, collective trauma, and extended cultural bodily and mental responses, in order to identify gaps in the literature that need to be addressed.
A search of empirical studies from 1990 to 2022 was performed via Scopus, Web of Science, MEDLINE, EBSCOhost-PsychInfo, and Embase, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist.
The initial search yielded 1012 studies, 52 of which were included in the current review. The results show that the historical trauma concept has a high potential for new research in the field of Global Mental Health. Gaps in the literature were identified, including a lack of standard features of historical trauma, and assessments of historical trauma in additional contexts than its original fields of application with Indigenous Americans.
Although the introduction of the concept of historical trauma was intended to fill the gap of trauma-related difficulties not covered by the criteria of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), this concept needs further scientific refinement.
本系统评价（SR）的目的是呈现历史创伤及其语义空间中密切相关主题（包括代际创伤、集体创伤以及广泛的文化身心反应）的研究现状，以识别文献中需要填补的空白。
按照系统评价与Meta分析的首选报告项目（PRISMA）清单，通过Scopus、科学网、MEDLINE、EBSCOhost-心理学文摘数据库和Embase对1990年至2022年的实证研究进行检索。
初步检索得到1012项研究，其中52项纳入本综述。结果表明，历史创伤概念在全球精神卫生领域具有很高的新研究潜力。确定了文献中的空白，包括历史创伤缺乏标准特征，以及在其最初应用领域（与美洲原住民相关）之外的其他背景下对历史创伤的评估。
尽管历史创伤概念的引入旨在填补创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）标准未涵盖的创伤相关难题的空白，但这一概念需要进一步的科学完善。
