Participants for doctoral Research

Bruce Bradfield, a trained clinical psychologist, would like to invite mothers who have survived childhood traumatic experiences, or have experienced their childhood as traumatic, to participate as volunteers in a doctoral study. Adult children of the volunteers are also invited.

The research will involve a series of unstructured interviews, and seeks to understand how survivors of trauma cope with the memory of their past trauma, and how that memory may influence their relationships with their families.

Bradfield, based in UCT's Department of Psychology, can be reached at 071 685 6463 or by email.
