Ongoing participation by the United States in military operations around the world places military personnel at an increased potential for exposure to trauma, which may directly result in an increased risk for mental health issues. It is important to develop and test new approaches to prevent and mitigate the effects of trauma in military personnel. One such area of research is focused on psychological resilience to prevent the sequelae of trauma.
This article examines empirical research of resilience training in military personnel and discusses the potential applicability of such training in this population.
In this literature review, four randomized control trials and one retrospective, parallel group study were reviewed.
Each intervention had the goal of mitigating behavioral health issues after trauma exposure. The results of the various interventions were wide-ranging from no measurable difference in treatment groups to significant differences in outcomes.
Despite the inconclusive results of our review, we have determined that resilience training for active duty service members to help prevent the deleterious effects of trauma on mental health is a compelling and necessary avenue for further research.
美国持续参与全球军事行动，这使得军事人员遭受创伤的可能性增加，而这可能直接导致心理健康问题风险上升。开发并测试预防和减轻军事人员创伤影响的新方法至关重要。其中一个研究领域聚焦于心理复原力，以预防创伤后遗症。
本文审视了军事人员复原力训练的实证研究，并讨论了此类训练在该群体中的潜在适用性。
在这篇文献综述中，回顾了四项随机对照试验和一项回顾性平行组研究。
每项干预措施的目标都是减轻创伤暴露后的行为健康问题。各种干预措施的结果差异很大，从治疗组无显著差异到结果有显著差异。
尽管我们的综述结果尚无定论，但我们已确定，为现役军人开展复原力训练以帮助预防创伤对心理健康的有害影响，是一个引人关注且必要的进一步研究方向。
