Somatoform Dissociation in Traumatized World War I Combat Soldiers: A Neglected Clinical Heritage.
Originally published in the Journal of Trauma and Dissociation, 2000, 1(4), 33-66. [Reprinted here with permission of the author, Editors of the Journal of Trauma and Dissociation, and Haworth Press.]
Onno van der Hart and colleagues explore traumatic dissociation from descriptive, structural and functional perspectives. This article deepens our understanding of dissociation -- including perceptual, sensory, and motoric (somatoform) symptoms along with the cognitive (psychoform) symptoms in the DSM. Quotes from early writers dramatically illustrate various positive and negative dissociative symptoms in WWI combat soldiers. The authors emphasize the dissociative nature of somatoform symptoms seen in contemporary PTSD patients, and relate early observations by Charles S. Myers and by Pierre Janet to recent work by Ellert Nijenhuis and others. 111 references."
