“…There was a significant correlation between the Coping Capacity Score and unit cohesion, while the Stress Score in this study exhibited no significant correlations with unit cohesion. Previous investigators found similar results indicating that the Stress Score showed lower explanatory power than other PITR scores (Jue & Ha, 2019b;Kwon, Kim, & Song, 2016). When examining the relationship between self-efficacy and the PITR among nurses, significant differences were observed in the PITR resource scores according to the amount of self-efficacy, but no difference was found for the PITR stress scores (Kwon, Kim, & Song, 2016).…”

“…When examining the relationship between self-efficacy and the PITR among nurses, significant differences were observed in the PITR resource scores according to the amount of self-efficacy, but no difference was found for the PITR stress scores (Kwon, Kim, & Song, 2016). Jue and Ha (2019b), who conducted the PITR among conscript soldiers, found that soldiers with high military life adjustment showed greater coping capacity and presence of more resources on the PITR, but no differences were observed in the PITR stress scores between the high and low mili-tary adjustment groups.…”

“…They concluded that the PITR could be considered a useful tool to examine soldiers' psychological states. Another study examining the relationship between the PITR responses, military life adjustment, and resilience of conscript soldiers showed that PITR resource score and coping capacity score have discriminatory power on the psychological properties (Jue & Ha, 2019b).…”

We explored the predictive power of the Person-in-the-Rain drawing test (PITR) as an alternative psychological test for understanding and evaluating soldiers' unit cohesion. The participants were 204 conscript soldiers who serve a mandatory military service. They completed the PITR and the Unit Cohesion Scale. We analyzed the data using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. As a result, the PITR resource score and the coping capacity score correlated positively with unit cohesion. The regression analysis confirmed that the PITR resource score had a statistically significant influence on unit cohesion. This study provides empirical evidence to support the possibility of using PITR as a projection test to predict soldiers' unit cohesion.

“…In order to determine the characteristics, level and components of resiliency, an empirical study was conducted using "The Person-in-the-Rain Drawing" technique (Jue, J., Ha, J., 2019). Respondents are the representatives of those Ukrainians who managed to stay in Kyiv during the severe military operations in February-April 2022.…”

The article contains a theoretical and empirical analysis of resiliency and resilience in the context of the impact of various traumatic events. In particular, the impact of such events and phenomena as war and military aggression, which Ukrainians have been experiencing since the beginning of the invasion of Russian Federation troops, is outlined. The formation of resiliency in conditions of military actions and full-scale invasion is vital. Therefore, the authors outline the main theoretical approaches in the interpretation of these concepts within the framework of domestic and foreign teachings. The connection and relationship of such concepts as "resilience" and "stress resistance", "resilience" and "coping", "resilience" and "sustainability" are outlined. In general, resiliency is characterized as a personality quality and includes adaptability, stress resistance, mental stability, flexibility (emotional and behavioral) and resistibility. The purpose of the article is to find out the specifics of resiliency, its manifestation and development in people facing military aggression against Ukraine. The results of applying "The Person-in-the-Rain Drawing" technique made it possible to assess the components of resiliency and the main levels of its manifestation in the research group. The obtained results presented grounds to determine three levels of resiliency based on the selected criteria: low, medium and high. The analysis of three groups of respondents according to the level of resiliency indicates the need to find and implement ways of psychological support and provision of people with a low and medium level of resiliency. By increasing its level through the formation and development of adaptive resources and resistance, individuals will be able to mobilize their internal reserves and effectively implement them in order to protect their countries and provide assistance at various levels.

Purpose: to dissect the psychological implications of living and studying in an environment characterized by conflict and uncertainty, emphasizing the need to identify strategies and support mechanisms to safeguard the mental well-being of students amidst these challenging circumstances. Against the backdrop of the ongoing conflict, particularly in Ukraine, the article underscores the pressing need for higher education students to manage stress effectively and fortify their resilience, ensuring uninterrupted pursuit of their academic endeavors amidst emergencies. Materials and Methods. The study used general scientific and special research methods: theoretical generalisation, comparative analysis, classification and grouping, statistical comparison and generalisation Results. In the context of a complex, globalizing society and the intensified challenges imposed by martial law in Ukraine due to Russian aggression, preserving and stabilizing mental health has gained paramount significance. A decline in mental well-being significantly impacts an individualʼs quality of life, often manifesting in chronic fatigue, neuroticism, emotional instability, depression, and other adverse psychological manifestations. Mental health, an increasingly significant concept in modern psychology, encompasses a state of mental well-being devoid of painful mental expressions and enables conscious regulation of behavior and activity. Its structural analysis delves into the hierarchical structure of personality components that determine mental health. This involves a biological level associated with balanced internal organ functions, a psychological level aligned with a cohesive personality, and a social level wherein healthy individuals actively engage within the social system. Conclusions. In conclusion, preserving studentsʼ mental health during wartime assumes paramount importance, necessitating strategies to sustain psychological safety, foster social support, promote resilience, provide restorative spaces, offer professional psychological aid, and disseminate accurate information. Future research aims to explore students' psycho-emotional health for effective well-being support and learning strategies.
