“…Current findings also shed light on the question of reactivity to high‐intensity recurring stressors within a lower‐intensity continuous stressful context. Contrary to some previous studies on a similar population, which suggested that the continuous stressful situation may create habituation and thus less reactivity to specific recurring stressors (Rosenberg, Heimberg, Solomon, & Levin, 2008; Stein, Levin, Gelkopf, Tangir, & Solomon, 2018), current findings show that within such a context, people do continue to react emotionally to specific stressors. Furthermore, it is important to mention that negative emotions under the lower‐intensity condition in the current study (i.e., when there are no sirens) are still more likely to be higher than during routine times, due to reactivity to other war‐related stressors (e.g., damage or fear of damage to self or loved ones, or to property/income) as well as the threat of future sirens, which could go off at any time (see also Greene et al, 2018).…”
