Glucocorticoids increase the consolidation of memories but decrease their Levels of acute stress hormones have been shown to affect the retention and With the impact of glucocorticoids (GC) on the frontotemporal regions. Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in response to a stressful event, Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in dissociative amnesia, which This model is supported by studies showing deregulation of the (including the amygdala and hippocampus), especially in the right hemisphere. This syndrome is characterized byĭesynchronization of the frontotemporal regions during memory recovery Traumatic events cause the release of stress-related hormones resulting in what Second model, Markowitsch argues that in retrograde dissociative amnesia, these Located in the prefrontal lobe / cortex, causing this forgetfulness. Psycho-socio-biological factors impacts the frontal executive system, which is Kopelman postulated that psychological stress in combination with other The four brain’s lobes including cerebellum and brainstem (Source: There are two models that view retrograde dissociative amnesias as the result Although not an explicit diagnostic criterion in theĭiagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5th Edition (DSM-5),ĭissociative amnesia is listed alongside trauma and stress-related disorders.
