Post-shooting stress reactions were studied in a large police force to develop a psychological services policy and procedures in support of members of the force. Two empirical studies were conducted using a mail survey of a total of 66 members involved in shootings plus clinical interviews of a sample of these members. The results showed that members experienced most stress reactions within three days of the shooting. The average time for feeling that they were back to normal working, social, and family life was 20 weeks. There was strong support for various proposed psychological services and actions to support members involved in shootings. Recommendations were made concerning the conduct of psychological debriefings, counselling and brief therapy, the use of peer counsellors, services for affected police families, and stress training in the force.
对一支大型警察部队的枪击后应激反应进行了研究,以制定一项支持该部队成员的心理服务政策和程序。开展了两项实证研究,一项是对总共66名参与枪击事件的成员进行邮件调查,另一项是对这些成员中的一部分进行临床访谈。结果显示,成员们在枪击事件发生后的三天内经历了大多数应激反应。他们感觉自己恢复到正常工作、社交和家庭生活的平均时间为20周。对于各种提议的支持参与枪击事件成员的心理服务和行动,有强烈的支持意见。就心理汇报、咨询和简短治疗的开展、同伴咨询师的使用、为受影响警察家庭提供的服务以及部队中的压力培训提出了建议。
