Abstract
This paper analyzes the sociological and psychological characteristics of 24 families before, during and after suffering direct repression. The sample is from families who received assistance from a multi-professional health team in Santiago de Chile. Direct repression includes one or several of the following acts against one or more family members: detention, kidnapping, disappearance, exile, imprisonment, intimidation. All our cases were tortured. After describing the repressive events suffered, the paper examines the impact of repression on social mobility of the families and on the occupational status of adult members. In the last section the authors discuss individual and group behavior changes and adjustments, and variations in the interpersonal relations within the families.
