摘要：The contribution to psychotrauma literature from Dutch authors has a long tradition. The relatively high lifetime prevalence of trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is not unique for the Netherlands and does not fully explain the interest in trauma and its consequences. In this overview of psychotraumatology in the Netherlands, we will discuss some of the key events and processes that contribute to the current interest. We outlined the historical basis and development of the field in the Netherlands, including the impact of World War II, the effects of major man-made or natural disasters, engagement in military conflicts, as well as smaller scale traumatic events like sexual abuse and traffic accidents. The liberal and open culture may have reduced stigma to trauma, while other sociocultural aspects may have contributed to increased prevalence. Finally, we describe Dutch psychotraumatology today and how history and culture have shaped the current scientific basis.Keywords: psychotraumatology; PTSD; Netherlands; history; review(Published: 2 May 2013)For the abstract or full text in other languages, please see Supplementary files in the column to the right (under Article Tools)Citation: European Journal of Psychotraumatology 2013, 4: 20832 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/ejpt.v4i0.20832This paper is part of the thematic cluster Psychotrauma research in the Netherlands - more papers from this cluster can be found here.
