创伤风险管理(TRiM)是英国皇家海军(RN)在同伴群体风险评估的基础上提出的一种强化的创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)心理教育管理策略。TRiM旨在改变人们对创伤后应激障碍、压力和寻求帮助的态度,并培训军事人员识别高危人群,并将他们转诊进行早期干预。这项准实验研究发现,TRiM培训显着改善的态度PTSD,压力,并寻求帮助TRiM培训人员的态度,寻求帮助,从正常的军事支持网络和一般健康的态度没有显着的影响。在军人和平民中,污名化是一个严重的问题,妨碍他们寻求帮助,降低生活质量。结果表明,TRIM是一个很有前途的反污名程序内的组织设置。
Trauma risk management (TRiM) is an intensive posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) psychoeducational management strategy based on peer-group risk assessment developed by the UK Royal Navy (RN). TRiM seeks to modify attitudes about PTSD, stress, and help-seeking and trains military personnel to identify at-risk individuals and refer them for early intervention. This quasiexperimental study found that TRiM training significantly improved attitudes about PTSD, stress, and help-seeking from TRiM-trained personnel There was a nonsignificant effect on attitudes to seeking help from normal military support networks and on general health. Within both the military and civilian populations, stigma is a serious issue preventing help-seeking and reducing quality of life. The results suggest that TRiM is a promising antistigma program within organizational settings.
