Your Definition
Stockholm syndrome refers to a psychological phenomenon where hostages develop positive feelings, such as sympathy and affection, toward their captors. This occurs as a coping mechanism, a form of self-preservation where the captive may come to identify with and even defend their captor. The term originated from a 1973 bank robbery in Stockholm, Sweden.
