THE IMPACT OF DISPLACED VITAL STRESS ON THE FORMATION OF PATHOLOGICAL DISORDERS IN A FEMALE POPULATION
Abstract
The interrelation of personal characteristics with the development of disorders of reproductive function in female survivors of psychological trauma during the occupation of some areas of Dagestan by militants in September 1999, found that the most important personal characteristics of these women include: low level of emotional stability, frustration and high level of anxiety. Women who were exposed to a high risk of terrorist threats exhibit behavioral reactions that indicate significantly higher aggressiveness and hostility to the social environment. They are characterized by higher levels of anxiety, reduced background mood, increased neuro-emotional stress, impulsiveness, incontinence, reduced self-esteem and low self-esteem and difficulties in interpersonal communication with others, resentment and suspiciousness. For women survivors of trauma associated with a high terrorist threat were characterized by the development of neurotic disorders manifested in affective lability, asthenic, depressive and somatic and vegetative manifestations. Found was also a significant decrease in the self-assessment of the quality of life for all scale methods SF-36 in women survivors of high risk terrorist threat. Analysis of the psychological status of these women shows that change in their personal profile is one of the preconditions that led to the development of reproductive functions. Refs 15. Tables 9.
