1. Ichii, M. (2010, July). EMDR history in Asia: Past, present and future. Keynote presented at the 1st EMDR Asia Conference, Bali, Indonesia.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
To know the present status of EMDR in Asian countries: Method: Inquiries by e-mail to the representatives of Asian countries and related US or European people were sent. Replies were received from countries like Australia, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, and Thailand. Questions were on the origin of EMDR, the first training, the number of trainings so far, the number of trained practitioners, credentials, academic organization, acceptance from government, media, and professional world, future possibilities, and difficulties expected. Results: Some countries like Australia, Japan and Korea have already reached the moderate stage, but still they have problems to be solved. In Australia, their first training was in 1993 and many therapists have received training, but, organization started very recently and network is not strong. In Japan, Japan EMDR Association has more than 800 members and started publishing their own academic journal in 2009. However sceptical statements about EMDR can be seen in some books on trauma. In Korea, they have health insurance system for EMDR but practitioners are few. The other countries are in the early stage to grow the EMDR community or support the EMDR therapists. Most of them began the history after a big natural disaster like Tsunami or earthquake. HAP from Europe and/or US supports their beginning. The first Asian conference could be a good opportunity to start mutual understanding and cooperation in Asia.

5. Matthews, T. (1992, Winter). REM correlated with emotional intensity not scanning in dreams. EMDR Network Newsletter, 2(3), 8-9.

Language: English

Format: Newsletter

Abstract:
Recent sleep research seems to be consistent with EMDR findings. The standard interpretation of Rapid Eye Movement (REM) during sleep is that they represent the dreamer’s visuals canning with the physical movement represented on his or her dream. Recent exploratory research by Hong et al. presented to the Association of Professional Sleep Societies did not find REM correlated with dream “movement” scores. Rather, REM correlated with measures of emotional intensity experienced during the dream and scored as dream themes: anger, verbal aggression, social attack, and surprise. “This finding seems consistent with our experience during EMDR.

6. Sivan, A. (2008, June). Therapists’ views on the use of EMDR: The case of Hong Kong. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, London, England.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Since the introduction of EMDR training courses in Hong Kong a few years ago, the method has been gaining an enormously growing interest among professionals. One of the indications to the growing interest in EMDR is the high rate of participation in the training courses. While there is a volume of studies on the efficacy of EMDR among different populations, therapists’ viewpoints on its use has not been studied extensively. The purpose of the paper is to examine the views of therapists who have undergone EMDR training in Hong Kong and have used the method in their practice. Data were collected through an open-ended questionnaire and follow-up in depth interviews with a group of therapists. The questionnaire sought information about their initial experience of using EMDR, the types of patients they used it with, the contribution of the method to the therapy and the difficulties they encountered. Follow-up interviews aimed to shed more light on issues raised by the respondents and to provide a platform for their further elaboration. Participants’ responses indicated the positive effects EMDR use on clients and its facilitation of the therapy process. The respondents indicated difficulties in following the exact EDMR protocol especially in relation to the terminology such as: “completely false”, “completely true”, “emotions” and “sensation”. Additional issues raised around the use of the scales and of different bilateral stimulations. On the basis of these finding special consideration should be given to the adaptation of the EMDR protocol to the Chinese language and way of thinking.
