Is stress beneficial to your offspring?

"With the growing interest in posttraumatic growth (PTG), and the ongoing debate on the implications of transgenerational transmission of trauma, this longitudinal study examined PTG among Holocaust survivor offspring following their own exposure to trauma. Using self-report questionnaires, we assessed PTG over time in middle aged (age: M = 53 years) Israeli male combat veterans of the 1973 Yom Kippur War whose parents were (n = 43) and were not (n = 156) second-generation survivors of the Nazi Holocaust at 2 time points: 30 and 35 years following the war (in 2003 and 2008). Posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms and trauma exposure were also assessed in 1991. We hypothesized that second-generation survivors would report more PTG than controls. However, repeated measures design revealed that the second-generation veterans reported less PTG than veterans who were not second generation, which was evident in the PTG domains of relations to others, personal strength, and appreciation of life. Our findings suggest that transmission of trauma from one generation to the next is possibly implicated in the offspring's propensity for growth following subsequent trauma. Future research is warranted to examine the link between transmission of trauma and positive outcomes following trauma."

Le chinois et le bouc émissaire: indignation bon marché

http://depiedencap.leforum.eu/t7655-Alain-Figaret-alerte-MADE-IN-CHINA.htm

On se demande avec ce bon français qui lit les étiquettes s'il est sérieux ou bien s'il n'est pas réveillé!

Boycotter Figaret rien que ça !

Parce que ce dernier ne fabrique pas au Maghreb!

La stupidité inversement proportionnelle à la distance de fabrication!

Au contraire achetez Figaret c'est beau, bien fabriqué et très souvent élégant!

La démocratie représentative doit être limitée.

Le gouvernement fait face à une telle croissance du PIB qu'il a décidé d'agir.

Toutes les mesures, arrêté, décret, loi que ce gouvernement a pris depuis deux ans n'y suffisaient pas. Il y a encore un petit résiduel de croissance. C'est absolument intolérable.

Il faut y mettre fin. Fermer les magasins, diminuer les revenus, que l'espace de la société civile soit en permanence occupé par l'État, les manifestations, les dégradations. Sus à la société marchande qui pollue, discrimine, exploite, porte atteinte au droit des peuples, sus au capitalisme mondial.

Vive la paupérisation accélérée, le chaos, le crime, mettons fin a tout ce qui fait que cette société bourgeoise nous intoxique.

Vous riez, et bien vous pleurerez.
