Time orientation in Nazi concentration camp survivors: Forty years after.

Abstract: Temporal aspects were evaluated in 44 Nazi concentration camp survivors and 31 control subjects, all 50-60 years old. The survivors attached to the Holocaust a more intense role within time orientation; they were more past-oriented, less future-oriented, and had a generally more pessimistic attitude toward life events. Implications of the findings are discussed, with emphasis on the role of time orientation in the long-term effects of the Holocaust on survivors.

“…Lomranz, Shmotkin, Zechovoy, and Rosenberg (1985) confirm empirically that the time orientation of survivors "reflects their Holocaust experience," and conclude that "time orientation is a concomitant to catastrophic and extremely stressful events" (p. 234). From a multigenerational perspective, Klain (1998) states "If we can say that this [patriarchal] society has not changed, or has changed very little .…”

“…Orientation to the past also seems to be associated with the experience of traumatic events (Lomranz et al, 1985;Holman & Silver, 1998). The life narratives of depressed individuals show that they are more immersed in the past (Habermas et al, 2007), as well as life narratives of child abuse survivors are more focused in the past and devalue the central role of the self (Klein & Janoff-Bulman, 1996).…”

“…Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a traumatic psychological experience that is often related to several negative mood states and victims' pessimistic perceptions of their future lives (Crane and Eckhardt, 2013;Holman and Silver, 1998;Lomranz et al, 1985). Although associations between individuals' personality characteristics, mood states, and orientation towards the future are well known (Farnia et al, 2018;Martins et al, 2010), few studies have examined these relationships among victims of IPV.…”

“…In fact, IPV adversely affects a victim's cognitive ability to perceive success and reinforces the conviction that no action she takes will produce a positive result (Walker, 1979). In other words, IPV can have an extreme negative impact on how women envision and plan for the future as well as their capacity to live happily (Holman and Silver, 1998;Kilpatrick, 2004;Lomranz et al, 1985). Identifying individual differences that reduce or increase IPV victims' risk of developing negative mood states and perceptions of the future is thus crucial to informing theory-driven psychological interventions directed at women at high risk of IPV (Moreira et al, 2019).…”
