Article Evaluations:

on the complex trauma wiki there seems to be some bias towards the inclusion of this into the DSM or at least the medical diagnosis. However it is my understanding that this in not true. It is worth looking into. If this is the case that they are thinking of including it, it would be interesting to look at the diagnostic criteria that they are going to use and what that looks like. It us also interesting to note the their citation on the Developmental Trauma Disorder was a citation to their wiki page and not other outside sources. There needs to be other outside sources available to look into this.

Betrayal Trauma

This page has yet to be produced. I would like to contribute to what populations betrayal trauma looks at. I would also like to talk about what the literature states about betrayal trauma and their definition of that trauma. Another important addition is the history of research behind betrayal trauma.

Betrayal Trauma Theory is when the body responds to childhood abuse with amnesia of the trauma (cite). Jennifer Freyd first start the theory in 1996 after releasing the article (Cite). Freyd talked about how a authoritative figure or another partner in a young persons life who abuses the relationship can cause victims amnesia in an attempt to reduce suffering and promote survival (cite). When the young person relies on the violator as a means of survival and development they will seek to maintain the attachment and the violation will be forgotten (cite). Betrayal Trauma Theory continues to be studied in the field of trauma and some have thought it should be a separate category of trauma. Since its introduction Betrayal Trauma Theory's definition has grown to become a trauma where the violation of trust with a close relationship occurs within the context of a traumatic event (Cite Lindblom).

Betrayal Trauma Theory introduced the idea that some survivors learn how to compartmentalize their traumatic experiences from conscious awareness (TIMO GIESBRECHT and HARALD MERCKELBACH). This is now called dissociation or the disruption of conscious memory, identity or perception of the environment (cite).
