Abstract

Expedition teams operating in Polar environments are exposed to a range of environmental, psychological, and social challenges. How a person responds to these demands has implications for their physical and psychological health. In this study, we examined relations between the daily events encountered, coping strategies used, and markers of physical and psychological health in a team of six British Army soldiers (one serving and five reservists) completing a 68-day ski-traverse of the Antarctic continent. In general, daily reports indicated a largely adaptive response to the expedition. There were fluctuations in the events encountered, coping strategies used, and experiences of physical and psychological health throughout the endeavor. Reported daily events and coping strategies explained variability in the positive and negative fluctuations of physical and psychological health. Findings from this study can inform health decision-making of groups operating in Polar environments and others living and working under similar constraints.
在一次穿越南极洲的英国陆军滑雪探险中,日常事件、应对策略和健康之间的关系
在极地环境中作业的探险队面临着一系列环境、心理和社会挑战。一个人对这些需求的反应对他们的身心健康有影响。在这项研究中,我们在一个由六名英国陆军士兵(一名现役士兵和五名预备役士兵)组成的团队中,研究了所遇到的日常事件、所使用的应对策略以及身体和心理健康指标之间的关系,该团队完成了为期68天的南极大陆滑雪旅行。总的来说,每日报告显示,对这次探险的反应在很大程度上是适应性的。在整个努力过程中,遇到的事件、使用的应对策略以及身体和心理健康体验都有波动。报告的日常事件和应对策略解释了身体和心理健康的积极和消极波动的可变性。这项研究的结果可以为在极地环境中活动的群体以及在类似限制下生活和工作的其他群体的健康决策提供信息。
