Abstract
Socio-psychological characteristics of 955 combatants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, for the ten-year period of service were catamnestically analyzed. The dynamics of personal-typological features and professional adaptation was assessed in 3 groups: 305 police officers (Group 1), with a history of adjustment disorder and post-traumatic stress disorders, who underwent multidiscipline comprehensive medical and psychological rehabilitation between missions; 311 police officers (Group 2) with some neurotic symptoms and negative dynamics of character accentuations after missions, who underwent psychological rehabilitation at the place of service; and 339 police officers (Group 3), without detected abnormal and prepathological conditions, who received no intervention. It is established that an integrated approach to treatment and rehabilitation in police group 1 compared with the 2nd and 3rd groups significantly (p < 0.001) improves adaptation of combatants under peaceful conditions. Lack of timely psychocorrection in mentally healthy combatants leads to personality changes with dominating dysphoria, impulsive behavior and exaltation, which complicates the professional and home adaptation. There has been suggested to create mental health centers within departmental facilities for improving rehabilitation quality and maintaining the functional reliability of the police officers.
