Videomusic and Psychic Trauma
- Conditions
- Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
- Registration Number
- NCT04664907
- Lead Sponsor
- Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal de Toulon La Seyne sur Mer
- Brief Summary
This project is interested in the flow of consciousness and its modalizations during psychological trauma (post-traumatic stress disorder) and its resolution. It is based on the premise that in PTSD, consciousness becomes more rigid, less fluid, due to the memory always imposing itself on the consciousness. The resolution of the trauma and the subsequent reduction of anxiety might improve the fluidity of consciousness and thus lead to an overall improvement in the psychological state of PTSD patients. In cases of PTSD, music has been shown to reduce anxiety from the very first session and has a very positive effect on all PTSD symptoms.
In this project the following elements will be evaluated : on one hand, the changes in consciousness and its fluidity and, on the other hand, the evolution of anxiety following the listening of a new kind of work, videomusic (which associates a video scenario with music) exemplifying (metaphorizing) the trauma and its resolution.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Consciousness fluidity using a questionnaire dedicated to this measure 4 weeks Consciousness fluidity will be assessed before and after videomusic listening from the scores obtained at a questionnaire Evaluating Qualitatively the Fluidity of Consciousness (EQFC). Minimum and maximum values are 1 for "Never" and 6 for "Always". For some items, 1 indicates a better outcome and for some it is the contrary.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Patient anxiety 4 weeks Patient anxiety level will be analyzed before and after videomusic listening thanks to State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) scale and scores obtained will be correlated with EQFC scores. For each item scores go from 1 to 4. For some of them 1 means "Not at all" and 4 "A lot" and for others it is the contrary. A global score superior to 65 indicates a high level of anxiety and a global score inferior or equal to 35 a very low level of anxiety.
Salience-resonances method 4 weeks Experiential phenomenological interview will be analyzed according to salience-resonance method
Post traumatic stress disorder phenomenological definition 4 weeks Principal component analysis will be performed to find potential correlations between population initial characteristics and improvement of consciousness fluidity after videomusic listening
Qualitative analysis of experiential phenomenological interview 4 weeks Experiential phenomenological interview will be analyzed according to qualitative analyze criteria (occurrence frequencies)
