In response to combat, some soldiers develop a feeling of satisfaction in killing. The authors label this reaction the "heart of darkness experience," after the story by Joseph Conrad (1903/1982). They describe their clinical experience of seeing this response as part of a spectrum of reactions ranging from no personality change to rather gross personality change. After exploring psychological factors involved in this change, they suggest relevant treatment considerations.
面对战斗,一些士兵在杀戮中产生满足感。作者们根据约瑟夫·康拉德(1903/1982)的小说,将这种反应称为“黑暗之心体验”。他们描述了自己的临床经验,即把这种反应视为一系列反应中的一部分,这些反应从没有人格改变到相当严重的人格改变。在探究了这种变化所涉及的心理因素后,他们提出了相关的治疗考量。
