Abstract

This article analyzes the state of anxiety in military personnel with different levels of stress resistance. It was found that in servicemen with good stress resistance, a week after returning from the battlefield, a low form of situational and personal anxiety prevailed, and with medium stress resistance, high anxiety prevailed. 3 months after returning from combat, among servicemen with good stress resistance, the number of persons with low situational anxiety increased by 12%, and personal anxiety – by 4%, while high anxiety dominated with average stress resistance. High and medium positive correlations were established in persons with good and medium stress resistance and anxiety in the military. The purpose of the work is to assess the state of anxiety in military personnel with different levels of stress resistance. Materials and methods. We tested 637 servicemen who returned from the combat zone. We determined stress resistance using the test method «Stresses and stress resistance», according to which the examinees were asked to answer twenty-three questions, each of which was offered four options for answers. Anxiety (personal and situational) was examined using the Spielberger-Hanin anxiety scale (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory – STAI). The methodology consisted of 40 statements (20 to determine the level of situational anxiety and 20 – personal). The statistical processing of the obtained results was carried out by the methods of variational analysis using the licensed statistical software package «Analyst Soft Stat Plus 6» (license number 11895400) and the «Microsoft Excel» software. Results and discussion. Based on the obtained results, we can talk about the positive and reliable dynamics of reducing the level of anxiety in people with different stress resistance, however, people with good stress resistance experienced a faster and better recovery than military personnel with average stress resistance. This article analyzes the state of anxiety in military personnel with different levels of stress resistance. It was found that in servicemen with good stress resistance, a week after returning from the battlefield, a low form of situational and personal anxiety prevailed, and with medium stress resistance, high anxiety prevailed. 3 months after returning from combat, among servicemen with good stress resistance, the number of persons with low situational anxiety increased by 12%, and personal anxiety – by 4%, while high anxiety dominated with average stress resistance. High and medium positive correlations were established in persons with good and medium stress resistance and anxiety in the military.
