depressive patients and their over identification of roles, the link
to manic states, and a poor identity observed in patients with hys-
teria. Special considerations are made in the social interactions of
epileptic patients with “the other” which takes the form of “being
with”, and the dynamics established by epileptics in their social
roles. These characteristics are also found in epileptic psychoses.
When a psychotic state ends, and patients recover from a clear
or lucid epileptic psychoses, they return to work recovering their
social roles and interaction with others. In the case of cognitive
impairment and organic dementia, there is a difficult adaptation
due to this disability. Experiences lived under the psychotic episode
are maintained, even reinforced and influence how they consider
themselves and the others, in particular in terms of moral and reli-
gious ideas.

Introduction Risk and protective factors for PTSD can be grouped
into pretraumatic, peritraumatic, and posttraumatic. Reported
childhood abuse has predictive risk effects for PTSD thanmost other
pretraumatic risk factors.
Objective To examine childhood physical abuse history in war
veterans.
Aims To determine whether childhood physical abuse is risk fac-
tor for PTSD in war veterans.
Methods Cross-sectional study of 205 war veterans tested by
Harvard Trauma Questionnaire and sociobiographic Questionnaire
(with data of childhood physical punishment).
Results A significant difference in reported childhood physical
punishment between war veterans with and without PTSD was
found. Veterans with PTSD were identified as recipients of child-
hood physical punishment.
Conclusions Childhood physical punishment has positive corre-
lation with development of PTSD in war veterans.

Metamorphosing histories: The
narrative as a tool for psychological
trauma’s recovery
J. Becker
Coimbra, Portugal
Considering psychological traumatism as a subject in constant dis-
cussion, this study approaches the recovery of the patients that
suffered violent events. Based on studies about the reflection of
disasters and wars, we present trauma as a consequence of the
unexpected event from where is originated intense fear. Trauma is
a violation, an abruption, which disorganizes and incapacitates the
victim. When a violence situation is experienced, the physical and
verbal abuses are not alone as the elements that interfere in the
trauma’s establishment, but also their representations. Thereby,
the event that produces trauma is imposed, although its meaning
depends of the history and beliefs of the subject. Understand-
ing that the accident’s representation is the cause of the trauma’s
establishment, we introduce the narrative as tool for psycholog-
ical trauma’s recovery, because it allows the victims relive their
past and reframe their feelings. Regarding it, we highlight the rel-
evance of the sociocultural context – before, during and after the
trauma –, once it has direct influence over the way the person deals
with adversities, as it can stimulate or stop a resilience process.
This study takes in consideration that resilience is not something
static, a faculty that the subject has or not, but a process that can be
developed, improved or reduced. Thus, the narrative is presented
as essential to initiate a resilience process, empowering the victims
to confront the trauma and to rewrite their history and their return
to life.

The forced displacement in Montería, a region from the Colombian
Caribbean could become a risk factor for the existence of Post-
Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), nevertheless, there isn’t data of
the prevalence of this disorder.
Aim To identify the prevalence of the PTSD and associated events
in adults victims of the displacement in the city of Montería.
Method Transversal and explorative study, 117 adults (M: 40,41;
SD: 13,14). The PTSD was verified with the checklist for PTSD
(Weathers, Litz, herman, Huska & Keane, 1993) and according to
criteria of DSM-5 (APA, 2014). The 3 factors associated with the
disorder were analyzed according to age groups. To evaluate the
events associated to the disorder was used the checklist of events
(Blake, Weathers & Nagy, 1990). Occurred and witnessed by the
subject events were analyzed. Descriptive were used to determi-
nate the existence of the PTSD and an ANOVA to contrast the
symptomatology of the PTSD by age groups.
Results The 26,49% (n = 31) of the sample had the clinic crite-
ria of PTSD. An ANOVA of a factor evidenced that the activation
was present in a biggest proportion in the range of 53-59 years
old (M= 18.73); intrusion and avoidance was shown mostly in the
range of 60-71 years old (intrusionM= 14.00; avoidanceM= 14.85).
In relation to the associated events occurred to the subjects,
there was found that the highest incidence were: natural disasters
(42.7%) and unexpected death (35.9%); the witnessed events with
higher percentage where: unexpected death (19.70%) and traffic
accidents (15.4%).
