Recorded summary
In 120 women exposed to violence, ten sessions of EMDR produced greater reported improvements in post-traumatic symptoms, anxiety, depression, quality of life and selected cognitive tests than narrative exposure therapy.
Recorded limitations
The abstract supplies significance levels without effect-size confidence intervals. Masking, multiple comparisons and durability require further appraisal before a high-confidence comparative claim.
Evidence and provenance
Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.
