It is characterized by fundamental elements: favorable feelings for the captor, no prior relationship between captive and captor, unwillingness to engage with law enforcement, and a sense of safety with the captor. The syndrome is not limited to hostage situations but can also occur in cases of abuse. Ronald Fairbairn's research on abused children helps explain the Stockholm Syndrome. This documentary aims to raise public awareness about the existence of this mental illness and explore the circumstances under which it develops.en-USStockholm syndromepsychological responsecaptivityemotional attachment.Thesis
