Abstract
It is presented a look at mobile applications as a perspective tool for preventing the devastating effects of psychotraumatisation during the hybrid war. It is emphasized that rehabilitation influences, first of all, should help the victim to establish cause-effect correlations between traumatic events and the corresponding symptoms, therefore the key task is the specific informing of the population. The course "Socio-psychological support for adaptation of veterans", integrated into the application "Pocket psychologist", is presented as a tool for such information and treatment of psychotraumatic experiences by means of a cognitive-behavioral approach. The results of the empirical verification of the effectiveness of this application are described. Data on the organization of the research is provided: tactics (plan for two non-equivalent groups with previous and repeated measurements and experimental influence); sample (ATO veterans – 57 men from 26 to 34 years, 3 months to 1 year returned from the combat zone); the order of data collection and processing (online questionnaire by the "Impact of Event Scale", definition of intra-group norms, estimation of data distribution normality, definition of differences by t-Student criterion). It was determined that as a result of the application usage by the experimental group there was a tendency to decrease the avoidance of conversations and memories about the traumatic experience (the avoidance scale t=3.7, p=0.001), however, significant changes also occurred on the scale of intrusions (t=2.6, p=0.013) and hyperarousal (t=2.2, p=0.034). The conditions under which the effectiveness of the investigated application will be persisted are outlined: the users who are adherent to technologies, their self-help motivation and the average levels of overall psychotraumatisation. The ways of inclusion of a mobile application into psychorehabilitation process on the educational, diagnostic, basic and preventive stages are offered.
