摘要

军事人员服现役后过渡到平民生活的经历差别很大。对于那些在过渡过程中遇到问题的人来说,生活的特点往往是孤独、社交孤立、心理健康不佳、对酒精的功能依赖,以及其他应对创伤后应激障碍的负面行为。本研究采用行动研究的方法论和参与式行动研究的实施方法。两者都促进了一个系统而务实的过程,揭示了对社会处方如何成为退伍军人及其家人转变的驱动力的新理解(51名参与者参加了18个单独的研讨会)。这种反复的探索过程使人们能够有指导地理解退伍军人从军人生活过渡到平民生活的复杂个人和集体共同经历。专业艺术家为退伍军人及其家人提供了方便的集体艺术体验,以培养积极的公民意识。研究表明,从军人生活过渡到平民生活的参与者报告说,由于参与集体创造性实践,他们的幸福感有所增强。参与者将此归因于有机会学习新技能,获得创造性表达感,并与同龄人一起反思自己的军事遗产和对服役的贡献。从这项研究中获得的知识使我们能够考虑参与性行动研究的原则如何有可能转移到其他类似的环境中,这些环境有助于支持退伍军人从军事生活过渡到平民生活。

‘Applied Social Prescribing Practice: A Focused Arts Based Participatory Action Research Study of Military Veteran Transition Into Civilian Life’
Experiences of transition into civilian life after active service differs widely for military personnel. For those who experience issues in this process of transition, life can often be characterized by perceptions of loneliness, social isolation, poor mental well-being, and a functional dependency on alcohol, alongside other negative behaviors, for coping with post-traumatic stress disorder. This research employed action research methodology and the implementation of participatory action research methods. Both facilitated a systematic and pragmatic process of revealing new understandings about how social prescribing could act as a driver of transformation for veterans and their families (51 participants engaged across 18 individual workshops). This iterative exploratory process enabled a guided understanding of complex individual and collectively-shared experiences of veterans transitioning from military back to civilian lives. The facilitated collective arts experiences for veterans and their families were undertaken by specialist artists to foster a sense of active citizenship. The study revealed that participants transitioning from military to civilian life reported an increased sense of well-being because of engaging in collective creative practice. Participants attributed this to the opportunity of learning new skills, gaining a sense of creative expression, and engaging in reflection on their military heritage and contribution to service alongside peers. Knowledge gained from this research enables consideration of how principles of participatory action research may have potential transferability to other similar contexts which serve to support veterans in their transition from military to civilian life.
