Dissociation and the Fragmentary Nature of Traumatic Memories: Overview and Exploratory Study.
This is a version of their article published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress, 1995, 8(4), 505-525.
In this article, Bessel van der Kolk and Rita Fisler review differences between memories of traumatic vs. stressful events and summarize evidence implicating dissociation as an important mechanism in the formation of PTSD. The authors also present results from an exploratory interview study, indicating that subjects (N=46) with PTSD initially retrieve traumatic memories as fragmentary dissociated elements (such as visual, olfactory, or affective experiences), followed by gradual emergence of a personal narrative (explicit memory).
