Takes an initial look at trauma and development from a lifetime perspective, exploring such questions as how trauma is experienced at various stages of development, how the experience during different development periods affects adaptation over time, how trauma is defined and experienced by members of various subpopulations, the effects of family versus community trauma on the individual, the community response to trauma and how it affects individuals, the difference between witnessing trauma and being a victim of it, what factors promote resilience, whether there are periods in development in which people are particularly sensitive or when intervention would be most effective, and whether some exposure to trauma helps coping resources over the life course. No date is noted for the symposium from which the 20 papers emerged; it was probably held in Rochester, New York. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
