The Impact of Self-Efficacy and Resilience on Intrusive Memories and Intrusion Changes Post-Trauma eng 2024-07-08 author Rey Clara Virginie Noélie 986200 director Rimmele Ulrike 784969 Section de psychologie (PSICO) director Elbassiouny Mai Hisham Sirry 924051 Centre interfacultaire de gérontologie et d'études des vulnérabilités (CIGE) This research focuses on investigating Tetris® as a visuospatial intervention for reducing intrusive memories during memory reconsolidation, as well as understanding the interplay of self-efficacy and resilience in mitigating intrusive memories in individuals with PTSD. Using the trauma film paradigm, we tested five hypotheses: H1: Implementing a visuospatial intervention during memory reconsolidation will diminish intrusive memories post-trauma. H2: Higher levels of self-efficacy, assessed by the GSES, correlates to lower amount of intrusive memories in diary A post-trauma. H3: High levels of self-efficacy, assessed by the GSES, correlates to a bigger change in intrusions. H4: Higher levels of resilience, assessed by the CD-RISC, correlates to a lower amount of intrusive memories in diary A post-trauma. H5: High levels of resilience, assessed by the CD-RISC, correlates to a bigger change in intrusions Our sample was composed of 134 participants (M(SD)= 24.4(6.99)). The data analysis confirms that Tetris® significantly reduces intrusive memories but no significant correlations were found between self-efficacy or resilience and the number of intrusive memories or the changes in intrusions. This Master thesis initiates a discussion on the underlying reasons for this outcome.
