13 Neuropsychologie der posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung (PTBS)

  • Chapter

Zusammenfassung

Der vorliegende Beitrag behandelt die neuropsychologischen Grundlagen der posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung (PTBS). Die PTBS ist eine Erkrankung, die sowohl psychische als auch kognitive und emotionale sowie körperliche Veränderungen unterschiedlicher Natur umfasst, die durch ein oder mehrere traumatische Ereignisse ausgelöst werden. Der Begriff der posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung wurde zwar erst 1980 als nosologische Kategorie in der 3. Ausgabe des Diagnosehandbuches der amerikanischen Psychiatriegesellschaft (DSM-III, Diagnostisches und statistisches Manual psychischer Störungen) eingeführt, jedoch finden sich bereits in der älteren Literatur eine Vielzahl von teils anekdotischen Berichten über Zustände, die durch traumatische Ereignisse hervorgerufen wurden und denen der PTBS ähneln bzw. mit dieser vergleichbar sind. So finden sich schon in der Antike beim römischen Geschichtsschreiber Plutarch Berichte über Soldaten, bei denen infolge von traumatischen Ereignissen plötzliche Taubstummheit auftrat.

Die kognitiven Faktoren werden zu drei verschiedenen Zeitpunkten (4, 6, 9 Monate nach einem traumatischen Übergriff) untersucht. Bedeutsame kognitive Prädiktoren sind demnach: kognitiver Verarbeitungsstil während des Traumas, Bewertung der Traumafolgen, negative Überzeugungen hinsichtlich der eigenen Person und der Umwelt und maladaptive Kontrollstrategien. Zusammenhänge zwischen frühen Bewertungen, Kontrollstrategien und Verarbeitungsstilen mit dem Schweregrad resultierender PTBS waren unabhängig von Geschlecht und objektiver Ausprägung der Traumatisierung. Aus diesen Befunden lässt sich die Bedeutsamkeit der kognitiven Faktoren für den Erfolg einer Traumtherapie herleiten.
