These behaviors create a cycle that temporarily lowers stress levels but can result in severe long-term health consequences. Breaking these habits is essential to reduce the risk of chronic diseases and improve overall well-being. Three primary changes that support better health include quitting smoking, reducing alcohol intake,...

Psychological Responses to Stress01:20

Psychological Responses to Stress

219
Psychological responses to stress encompass the various cognitive and emotional reactions individuals experience when faced with challenging or threatening situations, such as a job loss. Prolonged exposure to stressors can disturb emotional balance, increasing negative emotions (e.g., anxiety and sadness) and diminishing positive emotions (e.g., joy and satisfaction). These persistent emotional shifts are associated with an increased risk of both physical illness and mental health issues, such...

    Area of Science:

    • Military psychology
    • Human performance technology
    • Intervention development

    Background:

    • Stress Inoculation Training (SIT) shows promise for military performance and psychological health.
    • Limited manualization hinders widespread adoption of SIT interventions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Develop and evaluate a comprehensive SIT protocol for special warfare and first-response military personnel.
    • Enhance both performance and psychological health in high-stress military roles.

    Main Methods:

    • Consulted 19 subject matter experts for protocol generation.
    • Utilized the performance improvement/human performance technology (HPT) model for skill selection and measurement.
    • Trialed and refined the protocol across 44 cohorts (n=300) from 2013-2020.

    Main Results:

    • Generated SIT-NORCAL, a flexible, evidence-based hybrid for psychological performance and health.
    • Provided manualized guidance for content, delivery, and measurement.
    • Created multimedia materials and initial measurement systems.
    • Preliminary analysis showed positive results on standard-of-care and performance assessments.

    Conclusions:

    • Hybridized protocols offer a paradigm shift in psychological performance training delivery.
    • Potential to overcome barriers associated with traditional care models.
    • Further research is required to establish the effectiveness and reach of SIT-NORCAL.
