Conceptual analysis reveals a transtheoretical framework for community dissociation, suggesting alternative perspectives beyond trauma and iatrogenesis models.
Key Points
To propose a transtheoretical perspective on community dissociation that bridges the gap between trauma-based and iatrogenic explanations.
Conducted a theoretical synthesis of existing literature on trauma models and iatrogenic accounts of dissociation.
Applied a transtheoretical lens to examine how dissociative experiences manifest within community contexts.
Demonstrates that viewing dissociation strictly through trauma or iatrogenesis creates a false dichotomy that limits community understanding.
Outlines an integrative conceptual framework accounting for both socio-relational influences and traumatic antecedents in community dissociation.
