Stokholm Syndromet

Har haft en diskussion med en ven, som pokernet-oraklet
lige må svare på;

Kan stokholm-syndromet hovedsagligt betegnes som psykologisk eller sociologisk?

Psykologisk

EDIT: Ah okay, hvis man udvider definitionen af sociologi til at indeholde den sociale interaktion mellem mennesker i en mindre gruppe, så er det også et sociologisk fænomen.

I dunno, halvt af hver.

Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response sometimes seen in an abducted hostage, in which the hostage can show signs of having feelings of loyalty to the hostage-taker, regardless of the danger (or at least risk) in which the hostage has been placed. Stockholm syndrome is also sometimes discussed in reference to other situations with similar tensions, such as battered person syndrome, rape cases, child abuse cases, and bride kidnapping. The syndrome is named after the Norrmalmstorg robbery of Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm, Sweden, in which the bank robbers held bank employees hostage from August 23 to August 28 in 1973. In this case, the victims became emotionally attached to their victimizers, and even defended their captors after they were freed from their six-day ordeal. The term Stockholm Syndrome was coined by the criminologist and psychiatrist Nils Bejerot, who assisted the police during the robbery, and referred to the syndrome in a news broadcast.

Psykologisk!
