In this investigation 82 patients with various head traumas are examined with respect to time and duration of retrograde, congrade and anterograde amnesia, especially the dependence of their duration on the severity of trauma. The more severe the trauma, the longer the duration of all forms of amnesia, the retrograde being the shorter whether there is a loss of conscience (congrade amnesia) or not. A tendency of amnesias to shrink could only be examined following mild brain trauma and occurred seldom. Our findings suggest that short amnesias have less tendency to shrink than long ones. The distribution of amnesias support cybernetic memory models. As a consequence of our findings we give recommendations for the clinical evaluation of patients with head-brain trauma.
在本次调查中，对82例患有各种头部创伤的患者进行了逆行性、顺行性和前行性遗忘的时间及持续时间的检查，尤其检查了遗忘持续时间与创伤严重程度的相关性。创伤越严重，所有形式遗忘的持续时间就越长，无论是否存在意识丧失（顺行性遗忘），逆行性遗忘的持续时间都较短。遗忘症缩短的趋势仅在轻度脑外伤后进行了检查，且很少发生。我们的研究结果表明，短时间的遗忘症比长时间的遗忘症更不容易缩短。遗忘症的分布支持控制论记忆模型。根据我们的研究结果，我们给出了对颅脑创伤患者进行临床评估的建议。
