Abstract
Los recientes estudios en priming perceptivo se han centrado
en identificar las diferencias entre población con y sin Trastorno por Estrés
Postraumático (TEPT) confirmando la hipótesis que el TEPT representa
un trastorno de la memoria. En este trabajo, se pretende abordar el pri-
ming en personas que han estado expuestas a diversas experiencias traumá-
ticas relacionadas con el desplazamiento forzado. Para ello se diseñaron
tres categorías de palabras “trauma” (i.e., de amenaza, emocional y judicial)
y una categoría de palabras “neutra”, las cuales compartían su raíz de tres
letras en 44 colombianos refugiados y solicitantes de asilo que residen en
Ecuador con presencia o ausencia de TEPT. Los resultados confirman que
las personas con TEPT presentan mayor priming perceptivo en las catego-
rías de amenaza y emociones y los solicitantes de asilo en la categoría judi-
cial. Se discuten las implicaciones para los estudios que abordan el impacto
de violencia política
n line with the hypothesis that PTSD is a memory disorder, re- cent studies on perceptual priming have focused on identifying the differ- ences between population with and without Post-Traumatic Stress Disor- der (PTSD). This study addresses priming in people who have been ex- posed to traumatic experiences of forced displacement. To that end, three categories of the word “trauma” (i.e., of threat, emotional and judicial) and a category of “neutral” words, which shared their three-letter root were chosen. The participants were 44 Colombian refugees and asylum seekers living in Ecuador with or without PTSD. The results of our study point that people with PTSD have higher perceptual priming in the threat and emotional categories, and asylum seekers show higher priming in the judi- cial category. The implications for studies that address the impact of polit- ical violence are discussed.
