Estresse em combate: análise da assistência psicológica aos militares do s Grupamentos Operativos de Fuzileiros Navais em Operações de Paz: uma proposta para o aprimoramento da gestão do estresse em combate

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the psychological assistance in preparation, deployment and demobilization of the Brazilian Marine Operational Groups (GptOpFuzNav) in Peacekeeping Operations (PKO) in relation to combat stress, showing that this disorder can significantly affect the professional performance of the military and their personal lives. Through the use of the theoretical assumptions of the Weber bureaucracy theory, benchmarking and theoretical concepts involving combat stress, the management protocols developed by other countries were confronted with those currently employed in the GptOpFuzNav. Finally, it follows suggestions to improve the planning, monitoring and psychophysical support to the military of the Brazilian Navy involved in PKO.
