| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of trauma writing on mental and physical health and higher cognitive function enhancement from the perspectives of cognitive behavior and brain sciences. It was not found that the structured writing condition to promote distancing (decentering) from negative thinking about trauma significantly increased mental and physical health, higher cognitive function (working memory), and the blood flow in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex compared with free writing and control condition. However, related studies suggested that decentering itself reduces posttraumatic stress reactions. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a writing procedure that will surely promote decentering, and examine a precise measurement method of the process and result.
