RESEARCH UPDATE |
One of the most interesting keynote presentations at the 8th EMDR Europe Conference in Paris was by Bessel van der Kolk when he presented the results of his latest random controlled study. You can now download the full study. It certainly presents EMDR very positively. |
Can an elephant suffer PTSD? |
Dr Bradshaw, a psychologist from the Pacific Graduate Institute, California has published a study which shows that the increase of attacks by African elephants on humans may be a result of the elephants suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder because they have witnessed their families being culled or attacked by humans. If true it means that the neurological similarities between animal and human brains are even greater than we ever supposed. If anyone can come up with method for treating a 5 ton angry elephant with EMDR it might prove very valuable.
