Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Based on the approaches found in the relevant literature and the obtained empirical data, three groups of coping strategies were identified in military personnel who had amputations during the full-scale war of the Russian federation against Ukraine: active-productive, active-semi-productive, and passive-unproductive. The coping strategies specific to each group were listed. It was found that there are certain achievements and limitations in the use of coping strategies by military amputees. A statistically significant relationship was revealed between coping strategies in crisis situations in military amputees and their socio-demographic characteristics (age, marital status, presence of children), which is manifested in the fact that older military personnel as well as those who live in an official marriage or in a civil one and have families and children are more oriented to the use of active, productive and semi-productive coping strategies.
