  • Title: Rape trauma syndrome in the military courts.
    Author: Young SA.
    Journal: Bull Am Acad Psychiatry Law; 1995; 23(4):563-71. PubMed ID: 8639984.
    Abstract:
    The military courts have developed a rich case law tradition in the area of rape trauma syndrome testimony. These cases are particularly important in the context of a military that is both increasingly female and increasingly sensitive to mixed gender relationships. This article reviews the military court's approach to rape trauma testimony over the past 15 years. The author notes that military courts have been accepting of this testimony within certain well defined limits. The author analyzes the approach to testimony at one military medical center and offers a testimony model for the forensic psychiatrist who testifies in a military setting.
