Abstract Flashback, related to the traumatic event, is a prominent symptom of
posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The dual representation theory (DRT) of
PTSD emphasizes that the weakened contextual representation (C-rep), the
enhanced sensory representation (S-rep) and the loss of connection between C-rep
and S-rep play an important role in the formation and retrieval of flashback. DRT
proposes that cognitive intervention tasks which inhibit S-rep or enhance C-rep
can reduce flashbacks. And many studies have proved this theoretical hypothesis.
In the future, simulation intervention studies should continue to strengthen, some
clinical application studies should also be appropriately More >
