摘要

Catastrophically wounded and injured Special Forces soldiers face complex psychological, mental, and emotional, challenges in recovery and posttraumatic growth. The purpose of this study was to explore the sequalae of these wounds and injuries among a population about which little is known. Interpretative phenomenological action research methods were used uncover the soldiers' subjective perceptions and perspectives of recovery and personal gowth. Identifying, articulating, and interpreting the personality traits, thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors of this population provided insight into how these soldiers made sense of their experiences. The eight study participants articulated a personality style, identity, personal constructs, and mindset that was forged by the culture, ethos, and warrior mentality of the Special Forces. The primary cognitive phenomenon described by the participants was mental toughness. This mentality was central to the soldiers' ability to cope with severe pain, multiple surgeries, ill-fitting prosthetics, and challenging rehabilitation. The central emotional phenomenon described by the participants was an enduring sense of loss. The loss of purpose, the loss of identity, and the loss of belonging all complicated the participants' ability to adjust to their circumstances. The results of this study clearly indicated that being a Special Forces soldier was deeply imbedded in the participants' core beliefs about themselves and world; beliefs that came into conflict with their current realities. By recognizing that their warrior mentality, self-efficacy, and personal narratives are strengths rather than barriers to posttraumatic growth may improve civilian transitions and personal growth for this unique population.
