A psychiatric syndrome following overwhelming stress after an interval of more than thirty years is described in holocaust survivors who had claimed compensation for persecution between 1939 and 1945. Five nuclear symptom complexes emerge: depressive reactions; anxiety states; somatic complaints; subjective intellectual impairment; and contact abnormalities. Subjects who had experienced persecution during their childhood exhibited contact abnormalities of an aggressive type three times as often as survivors who had suffered an identical trauma as adults.
本文描述了大屠杀幸存者在时隔三十多年后经历巨大压力时出现的一种精神综合征。这些幸存者曾在1939年至1945年期间因遭受迫害而寻求赔偿。出现了五种核心症状群:抑郁反应;焦虑状态;躯体不适;主观智力损害;以及人际交往异常。童年时期遭受迫害的受试者出现攻击型人际交往异常的频率是成年后遭受同样创伤的幸存者的三倍。
