Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effects of cognitive processing strategies on explicit/implicit memory dissociation and post-traumatic stress symptoms for students in junior high school at Taean disaster site. This study involves sixteen subjects who experienced the oil-spill accident. The control group involves twenty subjects who live in Daejeon and hence did not experience the oil-spill accident. The results indicate that data-driven processing was related to the enhanced implicit memory and explicit memory deficit (memory dissociation) with trauma related cues in the trauma group compared to the non-trauma group. Moreover, data-driven processing increased PTSD severity in the trauma group compared to the non-trauma group, whereas conceptual processing reduced PTSD severity. The results support the viability of the distinction between data-driven/ conceptually-driven processing for the understanding of memory quality and the development of PTSD(Brewin et al., 1996; Conway, 1990; Ehlers & Clark, 2000; Foa et al., 1989). These results were discussed in terms of relevance to the previous studies. And the limitations of the present study were suggested for further study.
