This framework, while preliminary, is a first step towards a deeper understanding of the underlying processes for techniques like Trauma Reminder + Tetris gameplay that show promise in reducing trauma intrusions both immediately and at delayed timepoint after trauma.

To grasp the HOW, we developed a categorization system based on each technique’s procedures and hypothesized mechanism.
To probe the WHEN, we split the techniques based on their time of administration and examined their effect sizes within each timepoint.

Our work is guided by 2 pivotal questions:
HOW these techniques work?
WHEN are they effective?
Insights from these Qs are crucial for both basic science and translational research into development of effective therapeutic interventions for trauma symptoms.

Synthesizing data across 134 articles covering 131 techniques on trauma intrusion modulation, spanning ~30 years of research, we assess how these techniques alter (i.e. increase or decrease) intrusions and associated outcomes, namely intrusion-related distress and symptoms.
