Analyze risk and resilience factors associated with soldiers in two case studies. Then, based on your analysis, you will determine which soldier might have a
greater risk for developing a combat-related psychological disorder.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Pay particular attention to specific risk and resilience factors related to pre-deployment background, deployment-related experiences and perceptions, and
post-deployment events and circumstances.
Focus on pre-deployment, war-zone, and post-deployment risk and resilience factors. Consider the relationship between risk and resilience factors and
posttraumatic stress symptomology.
Review the Week 8 Case Studies. Reflect on each specialist's social support system and exposure to trauma before, during, and after deployment. Also, consider
the living and working conditions and combat experiences of each specialist during deployment.
Identify risk and resilience factors related to pre-deployment, deployment, and post-deployment for both specialists in the case studies.
Based on each specialist's risk and resilience factors, consider who might have a greater risk for developing a combat-related psychological disorder and why.
