Psychological adjustment following airline disasters shares many characteristics with adjustments following other disasters, both human and natural. On October 4, 1992, an El Al Boeing 747-F crashed into two apartment buildings in an Amsterdam suburb called the Bijlmermeer (The Netherlands). This paper gives a first impression of some of the postdisaster reactions in the affected population. It also describes the crisis intervention program (Aftercare Plan Bijlmermeer), which will be evaluated by the Bijlmer Research Project. In the Aftercare Plan for the Bijlmermeer, the organization and delivery of material aid and of medical and mental health aid was outlined. The primary goal of crisis intervention in this context is symptom relief. It is important that such programs are not looked upon as services for the mentally ill. The authors of this article plead for a better interaction between intervention and research. We need studies that can give us a better idea of the psychological effects of disaster and the effectiveness of various ways of providing postdisaster services to the public.
航空灾难后的心理调适与其他人为和自然灾害后的调适有许多共同特征。1992年10月4日，一架以色列航空公司的波音747 - F型飞机坠毁在荷兰阿姆斯特丹郊区一个名为Bijlmermeer的两座公寓楼。本文对受灾人群的一些灾后反应给出了初步印象。它还描述了危机干预计划（Bijlmermeer后续护理计划），该计划将由Bijlmer研究项目进行评估。在Bijlmermeer后续护理计划中，概述了物质援助以及医疗和心理健康援助的组织与提供。在这种情况下，危机干预的主要目标是缓解症状。重要的是，此类计划不应被视为针对精神疾病患者的服务。本文作者呼吁干预与研究之间要有更好的互动。我们需要开展研究，以便更清楚地了解灾难的心理影响以及向公众提供各种灾后服务方式的有效性。
