About this document
Understanding Stockholm Syndrome Explained by degraded 4rester is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Stockholm syndrome occurs when hostages experience sympathy and support for their captors as a survival strategy. It originated from a 1973 bank robbery in Stockholm where hostages defended and bonded with their captors. Researchers found this response common among kidnapping and hostage victims who feel threatened and isolated. Famous cases include Patty Hearst and Elizabeth Smart.
