This thesis presents a literature review on the relationship between memory processes and traumatic events. Following a theoretical overview of memory, the neurobiological mechanisms involved, and the concept of trauma, the thesis examines the main manifestations of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) involving memory processes and their evolution over time. The aim of this work is to provide a critical synthesis of the available literature, highlighting the central role of memory in understanding the consequences of trauma and their long-term impact.
L’elaborato propone un’analisi della letteratura sul rapporto tra processi mnestici ed eventi traumatici. Dopo un inquadramento teorico della memoria, dei meccanismi neurobiologici coinvolti e del trauma, vengono esaminate le principali manifestazioni del disturbo da stress post-traumatico (PTSD) che coinvolgono i processi di memoria e la loro evoluzione nel tempo. L’obiettivo del lavoro è offrire una sintesi critica della letteratura disponibile, mettendo in luce il ruolo centrale della memoria nella comprensione delle conseguenze del trauma e del loro impatto a lungo termine.
