This review examines the literature on psychological reactions, often referred to as 'compensation neurosis', which occur after an accident and which are thought to be produced or maintained by a compensation claim. Theories and research are examined. The area is complicated and research so far is limited in scope and design. Few accident cases involve compensation claims and the incidence of psychological difficulties across the whole range of cases is unknown. Researchers have considered a number of background factors--severity of injury, pre-existing neurotic traits, social class, sex and age--but there has been little investigation of attitudinal, family, social and employment factors or of progress of the condition and follow-up after settlement. The review identifies a major research need for more adequate screening and sampling of cases and for more systematic investigation of personal and family factors.
本综述考察了关于心理反应的文献，这些反应常被称为“赔偿神经症”，发生在事故之后，且被认为是由赔偿诉求引发或维持的。文中对相关理论和研究进行了考察。该领域情况复杂，迄今为止的研究在范围和设计上都很有限。很少有事故案例涉及赔偿诉求，而且在所有案例中出现心理问题的发生率尚不清楚。研究人员已经考虑了一些背景因素——损伤的严重程度、先前存在的神经质特质、社会阶层、性别和年龄——但对于态度、家庭、社会和就业因素，以及病情进展和赔偿解决后的随访情况，几乎没有进行调查。该综述指出，主要的研究需求是对案例进行更充分的筛查和抽样，以及对个人和家庭因素进行更系统的调查。
