The healthiest contingent of young men in our country is called up for active military service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This entails serving not only in normal but also in extreme conditions of war in Ukraine. Modern understanding of psychological and sociopsychological consequences of extreme conditions on military personnel is traditionally examined in two main ways: firstly, from the perspective of their impact on combat effectiveness and, secondly, from the perspective of maintaining soldiers’ mental health.
Each military man reacts to the impact of extreme factors depending on their constitutional characteristics, varying susceptibility to external influences, including energy-informational ones, ethnicity, time spent in extreme zones and the environmental and climatic characteristics of their places of permanent residence. Psychological and psychophysical readiness play a major role in the adaptation process of military men for their service in the Army. Therefore, for the effective completion of assigned tasks in stressful conditions the development of a soldier’s personality is no less important than the targeted development of technical skills and physical qualities. Psychophysical readiness is determined by the level of the development of necessary general mental and specific physical qualities: strength, speed, agility and endurance, motor coordination, resistance to stress, the ability to withstand the effects of extreme factors, as well as the development of psychomotor abilities that allow for fine-tuning the quantity and quality of motor actions.
In some cases, a stressful event for militaries in the conditions of war in Ukraine can also have psychotraumatic consequences, and this is referred to as a traumatic event. The response to a traumatic event can be divided into several phases: primary emotional reaction; denial phase, which manifests itself in emotional suppression and the desire to avoid memories of the traumatic event; alternation between denial and intrusion. Intrusion manifests itself in “breakthrough” memories of the traumatic event, dreams about the event, and a heightened level of reactivity to anything that reminds one of it; a phase of further intellectual and emotional processing of the
traumatic experience of militaries in the conditions of war in Ukraine.
The severity of a traumatic event, which determines the greening of military consciousness in war situations in Ukraine, depends on: the presence or absence of a threat to life; the severity of losses; the suddenness of the military event; the degree of isolation from others at the time of the military event; the degree of environmental influence, that functionally reserves of ecological consciousness of militaries in the conditions of war; the presence or absence of protection the person of militaries from a possible recurrence of the traumatic event; the presence or absence of moral conflicts associated with the traumatic event and their nature; the passive or active role of the individual in the stressful situation; the nature of the immediate impact of the event.
