| Резюме: | <p>Evidence from self-reports and laboratory studies suggests that recall of non-trauma autobiographical memories may be disturbed in PTSD, but investigations in everyday life are sparse. This study investigated unintentional non-trauma and trauma memories in trauma survivors with and without PTSD (N = 52), who kept an autobiographical memory diary for a week. We investigated whether unintentional non-trauma memories show an overgeneral memory bias and further memory abnormalities in people with PTSD, and whether unintentional trauma memories show distinct features.</p> <br/> <p>Compared to the No-PTSD group, the PTSD group recorded fewer non-trauma memories; which were more overgeneral, more often from before the trauma or related to the trauma, perceived as distant, and led to greater dwelling. Trauma memories were more vivid, recurrent, present, and led to greater suppression and dwelling. Within the PTSD group, the same features distinguished trauma and non-trauma memories. Results are discussed regarding theories of autobiographical memory and PTSD.</p>
