Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] The present research aims, in continuity with previous studies, to analyze the influence of age (preschool, school, adolescent) and the presence / absence of PTSD on narrative re-evocation capacities in sexually abused minors. Our data, in line with the studies on traumatic narration (Eisen et al., 2002; Lamb et al., 2000, 2003), confirm the influence of age on the complexity and content of the stories. Instead, the presence of PTSD, even if it does not compromise the validity of the testimony as a whole, makes it less effective and lacking in some important narrative aspects (references to the Self, spatial contextualization and descriptions of actions and reactions).
