Open label pilot study on posttrauma health impacts of the Processing of Positive Memories Technique (PPMT).

=29.25 years; 58.30% women). We used the reliable change indices and clinically significant change score approach. The following number of participants showed statistically reliable changes: 9 participants for PTSD severity (8 recovered/improved); 6 participants for depression severity (5 improved); 5 participants for positive affect levels (2 recovered/improved); 9 participants for negative affect levels (8 recovered); 9 participants for posttrauma cognitions (7 recovered/improved); 5 participants for positive emotion dysregulation (4 recovered); 11 participants for number of retrieved positive memories (3 recovered); and 5 participants for therapeutic alliance (4 recovered). PPMT may impact certain posttrauma targets more effectively (PTSD, depression, negative affect, posttrauma cognitions). PPMT may be more helpful in improving regulation rather than levels of positive affect. PPMT, if supported in further investigations, may add to the clinician tool-box of PTSD interventions.
