Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
14 randomly assigned Iranian girls ages 12-13 years who had been sexually abused received up to 12 sessions of CBT or EMDR treatment. Assessment of post-traumatic stress symptoms and problem behaviours was completed at pre-treatment and 2 weeks post-treatment. Both treatments showed large effect sizes on the post-traumatic symptom outcomes, and a medium effect size on the behaviour outcome, all statistically significant. A non-significant trend on self-reported post-traumatic stress symptoms favoured EMDR over CBT. Treatment efficiency was calculated by dividing change scores by number of sessions; EMDR was significantly more efficient, with large effect sizes on each outcome. Limitations include small N, single therapist for each treatment condition, no independent verification of treatment fidelity, and no long-term follow-up. These findings suggest that both CBT and EMDR can help girls to recover from the effects of sexual abuse, and that structured trauma treatments can be applied to children in Iran. [Author Abstract]

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Fourteen randomly assigned Iranian girls ages 12-13 who had been sexually
abused received up to 12 sessions of CBT or EMDR treatment.Assessment
of post-traumatic stress symptoms and problem behaviors were completed
at pre-treatment and 2 weeks post-treatment. Both treatments showed very
large effect sizes on the post-traumatic symptom outcomes, and a modest
effect size on the behavior outcome, all statistically significant. A non-significant
trend on self-reported post-traumatic stress symptoms favored EMDR
over CBT.Treatment efficiency was calculated by dividing effect size by number
of sessions; EMDR was significantly more efficient. Limitations include small
N, single therapist for each treatment condition, and lack of long-term followup.
These findings suggest that both CBT and EMDR can help girls to recover
from the effects of sexual abuse, and that structured trauma treatments can
be applied to children in other cultures.

Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
Fourteen sexually abused girls aged 12-13, were randomly assigned to receive either EMDR or SIT. Participants and their parents completed Child Report of Post Traumatic Symptoms (CROPS), and Parent Report of Post Traumatic Symptoms (PROPS), pre and post treatment.
Results indicated that there was significant influence only on the PROPS. But there was a significant impact on both these instrument (CROPS & PROPS), with EMDR. In evaluating CROPS and PROPS, factor analysis with SIT illustrated that, externalizing and internalizing symptoms in PROPS and avoidance thoughts and behaviors in CROPS were treated. Further the results gathered from factor analysis with EMDR, showed that internalizing and somatic symptoms in PROPS and self harm, depression feelings and also somatic symptoms in CROPS improved as well. Clinical findings also suggested that EMDR and SIT did not have any significant differences in treating posttraumatic symptoms. Factor analysis found that, EMDR was more effective than SIT in treating somatic symptoms of sexually abused girls.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
To explore the efficacy of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to treat Iranian Veterans who have experienced Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) after Iran-Iraq war, a pilot study was designed with pre-test, post-test and control group. First through clinical interview (psychiatrist and clinical psychologist views) and PTSD scale of Mississipi, 30 people of the war Veterans suffering from chronic PTSD were chosen. Then the patients were placed in two different experimental and control groups randomly. Only experimental group were treated with EMDR for four-session in four weeks. After treatment, both groups were assessed with PTSD scale of Mississipi. The obtained results were analyzed with ANCOVA and the results showed that the difference between the experimental and control groups were statistically significant (f=5.501, p=0.027). With regard to results, it can be stated that this difference was created by EMDR treatment.

EMDR
has
had
a
profound
positive
impact
on
the
lives
of
many
clients
and
has
been
shown
in
more
than
seventeen
published
trials
to
be
effective
in
the
treatment
of
PTSD
(Maxfield
&
Hyer,
2002).
However,
the
DSM
IV
definition
of
PTSD
is
focused
on
the
single
traumatic
incident,
and
many
clients
seeking
relief
in
therapy
have
a
damaging
traumatic
history
that
extended
over
repeated
events
or
over
long
periods
of
time.
The
term,
Complex
PTSD
(Herman,
1992,
van
der
Kolk,
2005)
has
been
proposed
to
describe
a
pattern
of
negative
effects
of
prolonged
and
extreme
stress,
particularly
during
childhood.
The
focus
of
this
workshop
is
to
describe
a
theoretical
framework,
and
specific
therapy

which
may
be
useful
in
providing
effective
therapy,
within
the
EMDR
Adaptive

to
individuals
suffering
with
Complex
PTSD.
Important

He
will
offer
EMDR
“tools”
that
can

to
make
the

power
of
EMDR
more

to
clients
who
are
avoidant,
and/or
highly
vulnerable
to
dissociative
abreaction,
chronic
shame,
and
unrealistic
idealization
of
self
or
of

He
will
discuss
the
primary
characteristics
of
clients
with
Complex
PTSD,
including
problems
with
disrupted

and
inappropriate
psychological
defenses.
He
will

how
to

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
The purpose of the current research was to examine the effectiveness of eye movement
desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) for decreasing of deterministic thinking among
couples. Deterministic thinking is an absolute thought to ignore any probability in incidents
and their inferences. It is one of the most important cognitive distortions to sabotage martial
satisfaction of couples. Twenty couples were involved in this study who to come for
consultation centers from three areas of Tehran (Iran). They were randomly assigned to the
experimental and control groups. The experimental group was exposed to emdr in five weekly
1.5 hour sessions. The dependent variable of this research was evaluated through
questionnaire of deterministic thinking (younesi &mirafzal 2007) before and after the
treatment. Then the data was analyzed through using an an COVA analysis. The results
indicated that the EMDR was effective for decreasing deterministic thinking of couples.

Language: Farsi (Iran)
Format: Book
Abstract:
Dr. Rasolkhani-Kalhorn produced a translation of the EMDR protocol in Farsi (Persian). In her dissertation she tells how she found psychologists in Iran to help with the translation, and to use the EMDR protocol in their field work in earthquake devastated regions of Iran. The psychologists also filled out a survey assessing the value of the translation, and use of EMDR in Iran. She considers the possible problems using the treatment in a foreign culture and shows how it could be incorporated through a country-wide effort to train EMDR therapists at the village level throughout Iran. The dissertation also includes a publication from the journal Traumatology outlining a theory of the neural basis of EMDR. This theory has since been proven correct through her research with two colleagues using EEG recordings of patients undergoing EMDR therapy.

Language: English
Format: Dissertation/Thesis
Abstract:
Francine Shapiro's eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) treatment and training manual (1995, 2001) was translated into Persian and reviewed for cross-cultural adaptation. The EMDR Persian translated edition was clinically tested in the earthquake stricken regions of Bam and Zarand in southern Iran. Therapists using this manual provided feedback in the form of an email questionnaire. According to this feedback, the manual was useful for training therapists to administer EMDR therapy in Iran. A more recent proposal for the neurobiological basis of EMDR therapy, which I have co-authored, is presented in this dissertation project. It addresses EMDR as a physical healing process that will have further acceptance by Iranians and the Iranian medical community. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved)
