由于第三世界国家普遍存在战争、政治暴力和其他形式的人为灾难，许多个人和社区遭受长期的、往往是多重的创伤。在西方精神病学中，对暴力和创伤反应的某些概念已经发展起来，包括广泛使用的创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）。我们认为，由于创伤后应激障碍等概念隐含地支持西方的本体论和价值体系，它们在非西方群体中的使用应该是，至多，试探性的。
Because of the prevalence of wars, political violence and other forms of man-made disaster in Third World countries many individuals and communities suffer prolonged and often multiple traumas. In Western psychiatry certain conceptions of the response to violence and trauma have been developed, including the widely used category of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We argue that because concepts such as PTSD implicitly endorse a Western ontology and value system, their use in non-Western groups should be, atmost, tentative.
