  1. Absence of verbal recall or memory for symptom acquisition in fear and trauma exposure: A conceptual case for fear conditioning and learned nonuse in assessment and treatment A. Ronald Seifert, PhD

  2. Aim • Use individuals' responses to known stimulus to develop individualized therapeutic strategies that address unknown and complex conditions of traumatic brain injury (TBI), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), pain, and anxiety. • Relevance • Absence of memory or verbal recall for symptom acquisition in fear and trauma exposure and absence of successful coping behavior for life events are associated with TBI, PTSD, pain, and anxiety.

  3. Method • We reviewed scientific literature for: • Clinical applicability on scientific-based relationships for structure and function. • Environmental- and time-based influences on learning. • Presence or absence of declarative memory and fear- and trauma-based symptom acquisition.

  4. Results • Fear conditioning and learned nonuse theory provided substantive findings. • By recording simultaneous physiological responses to controlled presentation of context-dependent stimulus, we can demonstrate unique relationships of physiology and overt behaviors for individuals.

  5. Conclusion • With or without memory or verbal recall, multiple time- and context-specific simultaneous physiological measures and overt behavior can guide clinical effort and objectively assess ongoing treatment and its outcome.
