一篇关于人类和非人类动物自伤的文献综述表明,这两个领域之间几乎没有思想的交叉受精。每个研究机构都有自己的优势,如果结合起来,可能会让临床医生和研究人员更敏锐地了解人类自残的本质。虽然对人类自伤的研究必须依赖于相关设计,但研究非人类灵长类动物自伤的研究人员有更严格控制的实验方法。实验研究使研究人员和临床医生能够以相关设计无法实现的方式解决因果关系问题。尽管很难从不同物种中得出结论,但对非人类灵长类动物自伤实验数据的回顾可能会给研究人员提供新的见解,以了解人类自伤的难以捉摸的本质。本文重点介绍了有关自伤的研究和理论材料,并确定了自伤动物模型可能为研究和临床理解人类自伤提供信息的方法。(c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
A review of the literature on human and non-human animal self-injury reveals that there has been little cross-fertilization of ideas between these two domains. Each body of research offers particular strengths, which, if combined, may more keenly inform clinicians and researchers alike about the nature of human self-injury. While research on self-injury among humans has necessarily relied upon correlational designs, researchers who study self-injury among non-human primates have more tightly controlled experimental methods at their disposal. Experimental research allows researchers and clinicians to address issues of causality in ways that are not possible with correlational designs. Despite the difficulties of drawing inferences from different species, a review of the experimental data on non-human primate self-injury may give researchers fresh insights into the elusive nature of human self-injury. This article highlights the research and theoretical material pertaining self-injury and identifies ways in which animal models of self-injury might inform research and clinical understanding of human self-injury.
