Talk:Psychological torture

Stress positions

In stress positions, prisoners must maintain an extremely uncomfortable posture--for hours, or even days--and typically are beaten (or subjected to other, more overt forms of torture) if they fail to remain essentially immobile in the position as ordered. "Self-crucifixion at gunpoint" would perhaps exaggerate the prisoner's experience, but the description is instructive. Death, while not common, does occur.

An insidious aspect is that those subjected to stress positions perceive themselves as participating in their own torture, and therefore are less likely to rebel against their captors.

Based on the intensity of pain involved, stress positions should more properly be regarded simply as torture, not psychological torture.drone5 (talk) 04:10, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
