Objective To study developmental peculiarities of emotional disorders in displaced residents from Antiterroristic Operation Territory (ATOT). For conducting of research, 60 persons who were transferred from ATOT were involved. Methods of research Clinical methods, psycho-diagnostical methods (Hamilton scale of depression [HDRS], Spylberger scale of anxiety, Mini-Mental State Examination [MMSE]), quality of life test (Mezzich I., Cohen N., Ruiperez M., 1999), statistical methods. The results that we got showed patho-psychological syndromes diagnosed in the persons of displaced residents from ATOT: astheno-depressive (75.9%), astheno-anxiety (82.5%), astheno-phobic (13.2%), astheno-hypochondriacal (3.3%). Results of the psycho-diagnostic investigations showed up that in men the indices of a reactive anxiety (average score: 37.7±3.0) were higher than the indices of a personal anxiety (average score: 32.6±2.9). In women, the indices of a personal anxiety (average score: 38.6±2.9) were higher than the indices of a reactive anxiety (average score: 34.7±3.0). An average score on the HDRS in men: 17.0±2.3 points, in women: 18.0±2.3 points. On the life quality scale, investigation of the individuals did not reveal any substantial differences among men and women. In the lowest level, the scales were evaluated as follows: Psychoemotional state, Interpersonal interaction and Overall comprehension of the life quality. Conclusion The multimodal based system of psychotherapeutical correction of depressive spectrum disorders and associated disorders in persons who were transferred from ATOT were developed which demonstrated a significant improvement in 73,3% of patients.
