ABOUT BOOK

"Military operations are very often accompanied by various levels of stress. ~This chapter aims to discuss the concepts and factors of stress and samhandling. The ~main factors are social support, self-efficacy, resilience and hardiness, implicit coordination, ~and character strengths. Individual factors are self-efficacy, resilience and ~hardiness, and character strengths. Team factors are social support, team efficacy, ~and implicit coordination. A model describing stress and samhandling, including ~the above-mentioned individual and team factors and their relations, is introduced ~and discussed. The conclusion is that four individual and two team factors are seen ~as important if one wishes to counteract the effects of stress and increase both the ~individual’s and the team’s ability to conduct samhandling when facing unforeseen ~incidents."
