Abstract
The article presents the results of psychodiagnostic work with participants of the special military operation who are undergoing treatment after combat injuries of varying severity. The main focus of the article is on the difficulties in diagnosing post-traumatic stress reactions: patients demonstrate low sincerity when completing paper-based methods of self-assessment of their current state. In this regard, the author’s psychophysiological approach was introduced. This method serves as an objective diagnostic criterion for stress reactions in the current period and provides a likely prognosis for psychophysiological adaptation following traumatic experiences.
Keywords: PTSD, psychophysiological diagnostics, and military personnel rehabilitation
