This study examined causal attributions for combat stress reaction (CSR) among 117 Israel Defense Forces (IDF) mental health officers. The impact of case characteristics (the level of objective stress in the situation, reaction of others in the same situation, soldier's previous functioning, and type of symptomatology) and respondent characteristics (professional affiliation, therapeutic orientation) on these attributions was also examined. Results show that mental health officers view CSR primarily as a response to external circumstances; it is not generally seen as resulting from personality traits or intrapsychic processes. Findings also indicate that causal attributions were influenced at least to some degree by the clinicians' professional affiliation, their therapeutic orientation, and their knowledge of the casualty's prior functioning.
本研究调查了117名以色列国防军心理健康官员对战斗应激反应（CSR）的因果归因。同时还考察了病例特征（情境中的客观压力水平、相同情境中他人的反应、士兵先前的功能表现以及症状类型）和受访者特征（专业归属、治疗取向）对这些归因的影响。结果显示，心理健康官员主要将战斗应激反应视为对外部环境的一种反应；一般不认为它是由人格特质或心理内部过程导致的。研究结果还表明，因果归因至少在一定程度上受到临床医生的专业归属、治疗取向以及他们对伤亡者先前功能表现的了解的影响。
