Language: English

Abstract:
The acceptability and preference of psychological treatments is important in understanding patient treatment seeking, choice, engagement and attrition and possibly treatment response in health care. The acceptability of, and preference for, 14 different types of psychological treatment for PTSD were investigated in a student population through invitation to participate in a web-based survey. Respondents were asked to rate each treatment on 10 scales and to rank the treatments in order of preference. Respondents were also asked whether they would seek treatment themselves, recommend treatment to friends and family, feel stigmatised by suffering from PTSD, had any prior knowledge of the treatments and if this had been positive or negative, and whether they had a history of psychological problems or treatment. A total of 330 respondents completed the survey. A past or current history of psychological problems and treatment was surprisingly high. Almost all respondents indicated that they would seek or recommend treatment in spite of high levels of stigmatisation. Factor analysis of the 10 scales indicated two factors: Endorsement and Discomfort. Rank ordering on preference and Endorsement scores was highly consistent. The highly preferred and endorsed treatments involved cognitive therapy, exposure, or psycho-education in spite of high levels of discomfort anticipated with exposure. Treatments involving new technologies, EMDR, and psychodynamic psychotherapy received the lowest Endorsement and preference. There was a modest influence of prior knowledge of a treatment.

Abstract:
Before using the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to
treat an undergraduate student who suffered from AIDS-Hypochondrias is
(caused by a traumatic event), stabilization was applied on this patient. It
was found that stabilization was very significant in helping the patient to
regain security. control and self-management for his emotion. This result was
strongly supported by results of two subsequent Post Traumatic Stress
Disorder (PTSD) undergraduate student patients. Moreover, compared to
former Panic Attack cases. which were treated by using supportive skills?
stabilization was found to be far more effective than supportive skills. It was
profoundly effective in helping the patient to be empowered to manage
their own emotions and to regain security and control.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
School refusal behavior is defined as a child-motivated refusal to attend school, or difficulties remaining in school for the entire day. As a heterogeneous condition, it can encompass aspects of phobic-type responses or separation anxiety disorder. This condition interferes with the child’s development as it impacts upon academic performance, family and peer relationships in the short-term realm. Long-term effects may include fewer employment and educational opportunities, as well as the development of psychiatric sequelae. This presentation will describe the use of EMDR as a comprehensive treatment for the child or adolescent with school refusal. Case presentations will describe assessment of the problem, with treatment of targets in the individual child or as part of a family systems intervention. Highlights will be placed on the rapid resolution of school refusal behaviors through the processing of traumatic incidents, versus those conditions requiring a more extended and extensive treatment program. The creative implementation of in vivo EMDR will be described in the successful classroom reintegration of two students

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
School referral for behaviour is many times a last resort for teachers and administrators at a
loss to deal with a student's distress. This post illustrates two such cases and the effective use
of EMDR to clear underlying trauma at the core of the observable behaviour. It raises the
issue of age of trauma with critical developmental tasks of children and implications for
treatment. The first is a single trauma at age 11 and treated at age 13. The second occurred at
age 3 and treatment occurred at age 7.
L. is a 13 year old girl whose family had moved three times in the past 3 years and at her new
school, she became extremely distressed in the morning to the point of not being able to stay
in class. The underlying trauma took place 2 years ago, and did not manifest itself
behaviourally until the current move. Using EMDR, resolution was achieved in a short
period of time. C. is a 7 year old girl referred because her fears were preventing her from normal activities of her grade level. The sound of fire alarm bells were particularly distressful. The family recently moved from another country and reported no prior history of this type of behaviour.
Interweaving EMDR in the treatment process was effective in treating past traumas, some of
which appeared to have no verbal memory and culminated in her current distress. Parental
understanding and involvement in using EMDR was crucial to the treatment.

Abstract:
Since 1987, when an unknown clinical psychology graduate student named Francine Shapiro discovered the technique while walking in a California park, more than 4,000 therapists in America, Israel and Australia have been trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and it has captured the attention of respected therapists from widely divergent psychological traditions.This article discusses the effectiveness of such treatment, including clinical, research, professional and ethical issues. Emphasis is especially given to the importance of training therapists in its use. [Adapted from Text, p. 22]

Language: Portuguese
Format: Conference
Abstract:
O objetivo da oficina é abordar como os processos de dissociaçăo consciente de papéis ou estados de ego podem ser utilizados para potencializar a reintegraçăo psíquica dos pacientes dissociativos. Pacientes dissociativos sempre foram um dos grandes temores dos terapeutas em EMDR para o uso da fase 3 em diante. Geralmente esses quadros requerem um grande tempo de preparaçăo além de um manejo mais avançado e interventivo durante o reprocessamento. Entretanto, entre pacientes com alto grau dissociativo é comum encontrarmos pessoas com grande fragilidade psíquica, acesso a um pobre histórico de recursos, uma grande dificuldade em se expressar, perceber e nomear seus sentimentos além de grande dificuldade em relatar seus traumas. Entăo, como avançar no protocolo de EMDR com pessoas tăo fragilizadas e que quase năo nos dăo dicas do conteúdo de seus traumas? Alguns critérios hipotéticos auxiliam a instrumentalizar tanto o profissional quanto o paciente a enfrentarem o reprocessamento. Primeiramente, (a) se diante de uma história de traumas intensos a pessoa sobreviveu e chegou até vocę, é porque ela tem recursos importantes, mesmo que tenha dificuldade de acessá-los. Um desses recursos é o próprio quadro dissociativo que a protege da intensidade dos traumas e possibilita a vida “apesar de...”. (b) Se essas partes estăo tăo distantes uma da outra, é porque elas tiveram um motivo para isso, mas talvez esse motivo já esteja no passado, e hoje podemos caminhar para uma conversa. (c) Sendo todos esses papéis ou egos săo partes do eu, certamente eles querem algo de positivo para esse eu, mesmo que aparentemente seja difícil perceber isso. Essas hipóteses ou crenças positivas a respeito do paciente devem ser checadas com dados de realidade para que possam ser fortalecidas, mas, mais do que isso, é fundamental que elas "transpirem por todos os poros do corpo do terapeuta". Identificados os estados de ego presentes no evento traumático parece ser mais fácil seguir com a etapa do reprocessamento de deforma menos interventiva, principalmente quando năo se tem o conteúdo do evento em questăo. Obviamente que todo esse processo deve levar todo o tempo necessário e seguido de todos os
cuidados que a aplicaçăo do EMDR demanda.
The goal of the workshop is to discuss how the processes of conscious dissociation of roles or ego states can be used to enhance the reintegration of the psychic dissociative patients. Dissociative patients have always been one of the great fears of EMDR therapists for use in phase 3 onwards. Generally these paintings require a great preparation time plus a more advanced and interventional management during reprocessing. However, among patients with high dissociative is common to find people with great fragility psychic, poor access to a historical resource, a great difficulty in expressing themselves, perceive and name their feelings besides great difficulty in reporting their trauma. So, how to advance the EMDR protocol with people so fragile and hardly give us hints of the contents of their trauma? Some hypothetical criteria help to equip both the professional and the patient to face the reprocessing. First, (a) in front of a history of severe trauma the person survived and came to you, it is because it has important features, even if you have difficulty accessing them. One of these features is the very dissociative disorder that protects the intensity of the trauma and allows life "although ...". (B) If these parties are so far apart, it's because they had a reason for that, but maybe that reason is already in the past, and today we can walk into a conversation. (C) Since all these roles and egos are part of me, surely they want something positive to me, although apparently it is difficult to realize this. These positive beliefs or assumptions about the patient be checked against data from reality so that they can be strengthened, but more than that, it is crucial that they "transpire from every pore of the body of the therapist." Identified ego states present at the traumatic event seems to be easier to follow with step of reprocessing deforms less interventionist, especially when you do not have the content of the event in question. Obviously, this entire process should take all the time necessary and followed by all
care that the application of EMDR demand.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprogramming (EMDR) has emerged as a well documented treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). A growing body of research is exploring its application to the treatment of other pathological conditions, including substance use disorders. EMDR was developed in the late 1980s by Francine Shapiro, at the time a graduate student in English literature confronting a diagnosis of cancer. Ms. Shapiro noted that, when dealing with her own distressing memories, simultaneously focusing on eye movements appeared to decrease the associated negative emotions. She assumed that eye movements had a desensitizing effect, and upon further investigation found that others also had the same response to the technique.

Language: English
Format: Dissertation/Thesis
Abstract:
This study used an interrupted time series design to study the effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitization Processing (EMDR) on the anxiety levels of 17 psychology graduate student participants who were in the process of applying to psychology internship sites. Participants were screened for pathology using the Symptom Checklist - Revised. Anxiety was assessed four times using the State Trait Anxiety Scale, twice prior to and twice following treatment with EMDR. Additionally, in an attempt to the account for some of the error variance due to history, the Schedule of Recent Events was given twice during the study, once prior to the EMDR treatment and once along with the final administration of the State Trait Anxiety Scale. Additional information about the effects of EMDR on anxiety, were obtained by monitoring heart rate and blood pressure changes during EMDR treatment for half of the participants. A dependent t-test on pre- and post-EMDR State Trait Anxiety Scale data failed to yield significant results. Other analyses also showed no effect of treatment. However, visual inspection of the data suggested that EMDR may have been effective for some participants. The range and diversity of participant's responses to anxiety over the course of the study, the relatively small sample size and design factors that increased the error variance were discussed in relation to the insignificant results. It was suggested that specific personality traits (e.g. characterological anxiety) and attributes of the distressing target event (e.g. amount of affect evoked) may act as intervening variables in an individual's response to EMDR treatment.

In this study, the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing was used with a 26 years old, blind male university student. Because of his visual handicap, knee tapping procedure has been used as an alternative to the EMDR. After his brother's death he attempted to suicide and then the client had a therapy in a crisis center. His psychological distress related to specific memories (e.g., after his brother's death, being forced to the morgue to see and touch him, and his sensations about coldness and scent of the death body) was bothering him in his daily life. His memories about his brother's death, suicidal history, guiltiness, helplessness, and his thoughts that he disappointed the others were evaluated throughout the sessions. Cognitive-weave technique was also utilized during the sessions. The Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) was applied as a pre and post test measures. After the two sessions and one-month and three-month follow-up, it was found that the BSI scores were generally lowered. In addition, he reported that he had a progress in his personal growth. The case reported here was interesting in the sense that it was the first successful application of knee tapping form of the EMDR technique with a blind person. The results of this study showed that the vividness of traumatic images due to hearing, smelling and touching would be reduced as in the EMDR studies. This article also includes the negative results about EMDR method and its efficacy. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved)(from the journal abstract)

Abstract:
One of the fascinating developments in mental health care in the last decade has been the appearance of specific psychotherapies for various psychiatric illnesses. Perhaps the best known of these is dialetical behavior therapy (DBT), pioneered by Linehan and colleagues for borderline personality disorder and consisting of rigorous group and individual cognitive-behavioral therapy within an empathetic and validating psychotherapy setting. Another is eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), described by Shapiro and coworkers as a treatment for PTSD and other anxiety disorders.The following case study involves a patient in a team-treatment setting who benefitted significantly from the use of DBT and EMDR, as well as a complex psychopharmacology regimen, after receiving an extensive battery of psychological tests. The clinicians who were involved with the patient will discuss the aspects of her care for which they were responsible. We do not endeavor to isolate which modality was the "right" one; rather, we are looking at the manner in which each potentiated the others. [Introduction] [Pilots]

Language: Swedish
Format: Dissertation/Thesis
Abstract:
Ett kognitivt minnesexperiment med mellangruppsdesign genomfördes i syfte att undersöka
auditiv bilateral stimulerings inverkan pĺ episodiskt minne. Bakgrunden till
studien var att mĺnga kliniska iakttagelser gjorts i den psykoterapeutiska behandlingsmetoden
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, (EMDR) angĺende
den bilaterala stimuleringens effekt pĺ minnesprocesser. Frĺgeställningen var: Har
auditiv bilateral stimulering nĺgon positiv effekt pĺ det episodiska minnet? Ett randomiserat
urval bestĺende av 110 universitetsstuderande försökspersoner (55 kvinnor
och 55 män), jämnt fördelade över fem grupper, i ĺldrarna 19-46 ĺr, deltog. Auditivt
stimulus gavs i fyra av grupperna. Den beroende variabeln var episodiskt minnesprestation
och mättes med hjälp av meningstest och ordtest. Nĺgon generell effekt av
bilateral stimulering pĺ episodiskt minne kunde inte pĺvisas. Bilateralt stimuli vid
inlärning visade dock pĺ signifikanta resultat avseende minnesprestation i förhĺllande
till de tvĺ grupper som erhöll bilateralt stimuli vid ĺtergivning. Signifikans erhölls
även avseende prestation i förhĺllande till försökspersonernas upplevelse av stimulus.
Resultaten diskuterades utifrĺn försökspersonernas upplevelse av stimulus samt inflytande
av arousal. Avsaknad av emotionella komponenter, som i förlängningen bidragit
till skillnader i minnesprocessande, antogs vara huvudsaklig förklaring till utebliven
positiv effekt av bilateral stimulering.
A cognitive memory experiment with between group design was conducted to investigate the
auditory bilateral stimulation effect on the episode of animal memory. The background to
study was that many clinical observations made in the psychotherapeutic treatment
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) regarding
bilateral stimulation effect on memory processes. The issue was: Did
auditory bilateral stimulation a positive effect on the episodic memory? A randomized
sample of 110 university student volunteers (55 women
and 55 males), evenly distributed over five groups, aged 19-46 years, participated. Audi TIVE
stimulus was given in four groups. The dependent variable was episode-Semitic memory performance
and measured with the help of meaningful test and ordtest. A general effect of
bilateral stimulation of episode animal memory could not be demonstrated. Bilateral stimuli at
learning, however, showed the significant results relating to memory performance in relation
to the two groups who received bilateral stimulation at reproducing. Significance was obtained
including performance in relation to the trial subject's experience of stimulus.
The results are discussed from the trial subject's experience of stimulus and the influence
of arousal. Lack of emotional components, which ultimately contributed
to differences in memory processing, was adopted as the primary explanation for non -
positive effect of bilateral stimulation.

Preliminary study on the effects of simultaneous application of two types of stimulations (eye movements and tactile stimuli) on psychophysiological autoreported symptoms in the treatment of negative autobiographical memories [Estudios preliminares sobre los efectos de la aplicación simultanea de dos tipos de estimulación (movimientos oculares y táctiles) en sintomatología psicofisiológica autoinformada en el tratamiento de recuerdos autobiográficos negativos]. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Madrid, Spain.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Negative autobiographical memories are effectively treated using EMDR
with patients making eye movements during the recall of negative
autobiographical memories. While several studies have measured the effects of
different types of stimulations, we are not aware of any research assessing the
combined effects of two different stimulations applied simultaneously during the
recall of the event.
For this preliminary study involving 15 adult patients from both sexes, 4 EMDR
counselor therapists measure 17 symptoms of the list proposed by Weimann
(1968)). Each patient is evaluated before, during and at the end of each session.
We control the effect of the sequence of one versus two types of stimulations by
assigning each patient to both conditions but in a random way: (a) first target first
session with one type of stimulation following with a second target first session,
including two types of stimulation; (b) the inversed sequence. We compare the
mean level intensity of each symptom (within factor) between one type vs. two
types of stimulations (between factor) using the Anova and the t- Student tests.
We hypothesize that an attenuation of intensity of the stress symptoms occurs
when the patient is treated simultaneously with two types of bilateral stimulation
(eye movements and tactile stimuli), compared to one (eye movements).
The paper presents preliminary data, as well as a discussion of the results in the
light of the theory of the working memory (Andrade et al.1997) and the
reassurance reflex model of EMDR proposed by MacCulloch and Feldman (1996).

Abstract:
EMDR was developed by Francine Shapiro, PhD, while she was a graduate student at University of California at Berkeley in 1987. Initially applied to people who had suffered severe traumatic stress -- like rape victims and Vietnam War veterans -- it has become a successful methodology for working with people who have experienced a variety of stressful conditions.

Abstract:
In 1987, Professional School of Psychological Studies graduate student Francine Shapiro was on a walk in the park when she personally observed that randomized eye movements seemed to make disturbing thoughts less upsetting (Colwell, 2000). From this initial experience Shapiro created the therapy known as Eye Movement Desensitization (EMD), integrating rhythmic eye movements with “other treatment elements” (EMDR 2004). Shapiro investigated this phenomenon further in a controlled study on twenty-three subjects with traumatic memories and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. In the study, the subjects were first asked to rate their feelings of discomfort regarding a particular traumatic memory using the Subjective Units of Disturbance (SUDs) scale which uses a 0 – 10 rating system to express emotional distress. Subjects were also asked to think of a Positive Self-Statement (PSS) they would like to attach to the memory, erasing a negative one. The subjects then evaluated their confidence in the truth of the PSS on a scale from 1 - 7, where one was completely false, and seven were completely true. On average, before treatment the subjects reported a SUDs score of seven and expressed the validity of the PSS as four. After a single EMD session, subjects on average evaluated the memory as less than one on the SUDs scale, and the positive self-thought was receiving ratings above six. These results remained consistent three months later (Lipke & Botkin, 1992), leading Shapiro claim in her dissertation that “a single session of the procedure was sufficient to desensitize subjects” (EMDR, 2004). The publication of Shapiro’s dissertation came nine years after the American Psychiatric Association added Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder to the DSM-III in 1980 (Friedman, 2006), and EMD quickly became a popular PTSD treatment.

Abstract:
Effective presentation skills are vital for success in most organizations. Preparing students for their careers, college educators often require that students demonstrate effective presentation skills. While traditional approaches to managing presentation anxiety help some students, EMDR may offer an effective intervention for those with serious presentation anxiety. This case study involves a student with
presentation anxiety referred for EMDR from an organizational communication class. The subject delivered videotaped presentations and completed the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) prior to and after completing three EMDR sessions. The subject’s pre–post STAI scores reduced from the 98th to the 55th percentile. Blind expert ratings of the videotaped presentations indicated pronounced performance improvement.
At 12-month follow-up, the subject was successfully employed in a management position,
making effective presentations without intense anxiety.

Language: English
Format: Dissertation/Thesis
Abstract:
This study investigated the intervention effects of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) on the trauma and behavior symptom severity of 10 children, ages 8 to 11, diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). ADHD is a common childhood disorder with increasing prevalence rates that raise questions concerning overdiagnoses, misdiagnoses, and possible inadequate assessment of primary, comorbid, and differential diagnoses. Accurate assessments for ADHD and trauma-related attentional problems have important implications for diagnostic intervention and treatment planning. The purpose of this research was to investigate if a three-phased treatment intervention including EMDR, a therapy method proven effective in the reduction of PTSD, would show a reduction in the trauma and behavior symptom severity in children with ADHD and trauma symptoms. Evaluation of the efficacy of EMDR in the treatment of ADHD was examined using a multiple-component case study and a repeated measure design for evidence of trauma. Two of the three treatment phases were randomly adjusted from one to three sessions in length, with the intervention method, EMDR, remaining constant for a total of three sessions. Outcome measures were the Subjective Units of Disturbance Scale (SUDS), the Behavioral Assessment of Children Scales (BASC), (teacher and parent forms), and repeated assessments of trauma using the Lifetime Incidence of Traumatic Events Scales (LITE-P&S, parent and student forms), the Child and Parent Reports of Post-Traumatic Symptoms Scales (PROPS & CROPS), and the Problem Rating Scales (PRS). The results from quantitative analysis suggested that the intervention method incorporating EMDR affected a decrease in Externalizing and Internalizing behavior symptom severity and trauma symptom severity in the ADHD children that were studied. Qualitative data suggested that trauma and behavioral symptom severity decreased as a result of the intervention method incorporating EMDR. The results underscore the need for further research to distinguish between the symptom presentation of ADHD and comorbid trauma and behavioral symptoms. A continuous refining of the method of diagnosis and determination of the comorbid disorders is warranted. [Author Abstract]
