Journal Title: Psychiatry, Neurology and Medical Psychology - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
On the basis of United Nations staff deployed in a highly volatile conflict zone there were 195 civilian and military personnel interviewed and surveyed with a modified and revised version of Impact of Event Scale -Revised (IES-R). The research was conducted with a purpose to assess the effectiveness of 6 hrs. Resilience Training (RT) conducted prior to deployment on the affected staff in decreasing and alleviating Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) common diagnostic criteria, namely avoidance, intrusion, and hyperarousal. Survey results showed that scoring on modified Impact of Event Scale-Revised for those who passed 6 hrs. RT without following RT handout instructions improved by 13 % compared to control group. Those who passed RT training and closely followed RT handout instructions for the whole duration of their deployment improved by 41 %. The length of deployment (or exposure time) is 7±4,5 months.
