Biofeedback training effectively reduces stress for crisis managers. This electrodermal activity-based intervention helps control sympathetic arousal, improving resilience to demanding situations and preventing stress-related issues.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Occupational Health
  • Stress Management

Background:

  • Crisis management involves high-stakes decision-making under extreme stress.
  • Crisis managers face significant challenges including time pressure and risk.
  • Effective stress management is crucial for personnel in disaster operations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel biofeedback training program for crisis managers.
  • To assess the training's efficacy in managing sympathetic arousal.
  • To determine the impact on subjective stress levels in a crisis management context.

Main Methods:

  • A randomized controlled trial involving 36 crisis managers.
  • Biofeedback training focused on electrodermal activity and stressor exposure.
Keywords:

  • Assessment of subjective stress using the Perceived Stress Scale.

    • Main Results:

    • The biofeedback training group showed a significant decrease in stress levels.
    • Stress reduction was maintained at a 2-month follow-up.
    • No significant changes were reported in the control group.

    Conclusions:

    • Biofeedback training is an effective stress management tool for crisis managers.
    • The intervention can mitigate stress-related performance decline.
    • This method may reduce vulnerability to stress-related diseases.
