- Abstract
- A study of the psychological consequences in overseas volunteers who witnessed the 1994 Rwandese genocide shows that witnessing a humanitarian catastrophe can induce severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. A brief group intervention attenuates the level of these symptoms. The efficacy of this intervention is discussed.
