Abstract

One hundred combatants’ families were surveyed in order to identify the features of psychosocial functioning of the demobilized combatants and their wives and to compare them with the satisfaction of the respondents’ marital relations, to determine the possible sources of maintaining the balances family interaction and objectives for further psycho-corrective work. It was found that despite that all the examined men had previous psychotraumatic experience, and most of them had psychic disorders of post-traumatic content, caused by the post-stress response, the married couples who were satisfied with their family relationship (28%) showed the success of psychosocial functioning by all the investigated criteria (problems with social functioning, social and psychological adaptation, quality of life) as compared to those married couples who were dissatisfied with marital relationships (72%). The obtained data will become the basis for the development of a complex of means of psycho correction and psychological support for the combatants’ families.
