Abstract

Out of the many aspects of posttraumatic adaptation the role of self-process is emphasized, where “self” is conceptualized as the representation of social interaction: Not only the “messages” conveyed by others, but also a person's inner response to that messages, forms ongoing self-processes. Traumatic experiences lead to distorted self-processes, to a great extent due to posttraumatic inner dialogues. Therapeutic implications and experiences from Bosnia are discussed, where this model has been applied.
