Reconsolidation-Based Intervention for Traumatic Memories

During the retrieval phase, cues are presented to participants to reactivate their memories; participants in the non-retrieval group go directly to cognitive reappraisal phase.

"Subsequently, in the self-focused cognitive reappraisal group, participants will be instructed to use disengagement reappraisal to separate themselves from the picture situation and draw a subjective distance so as not to strongly feel the negative emotions brought by the picture. In the context-focused reappraisal group, participants will focus on the picture situation, reappraise the meaning of the picture situation, and assign positive meanings to it."
