简要总结
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of augmenting existing/traditional Navy military training with the manualized SIT Core Protocol (CP) utilizing the established augmentation procedure set as measured by feasibility, utility, and satisfaction metrics (CSQ-8) and to examine the relative effectiveness of the SIT-CP by comparison to standard military training in a controlled trial examining outcomes of stress tolerance, psychological health, resilience and occupational performance in Sailors undergoing DCA Firefighting Training (pre- to post-training), while collecting implementation data.

结局指标
主要结局
Changes in perceived management of stress as assessed by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)
时间窗: Baseline, about 3 weeks from baseline, about 6 weeks form baseline, about 11 weeks form baseline, end of study (an average of 19 weeks form baseline)
This is a 10 item questionnaire and each is scored a 5 -point likert scale from 0(never) to 4(very often) for a score range of 0 to 40, higher total scores indicate higher perceived stress.
Change in resilience as assessed by the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC)
时间窗: Baseline, about 3 weeks from baseline, about 6 weeks form baseline, about 11 weeks form baseline, end of study (an average of 19 weeks form baseline)
This is a 25 item questionnaire and each is scored on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (Not true at all) to 4 (True nearly all the time) for a maximum score of 100 higher score indicating more resilience
次要结局
- Successful presentation of the element in the training module as assessed by the SIT Feasibility Rubric(week 4)
- level of confidence with delivering the training elements within the Module and the full Module as assessed by the SIT Feasibility Rubric(week 4)
- Satisfaction as assessed by the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 (CSQ-8)(week 11(end of study))
- Change in mental skills as assessed by the Test of Performance Strategies (TOPS)(Baseline, about 6 weeks form baseline, about week 11, end of study (19 weeks form baseline))
- Utility as assessed by the standardized self-assessment tool(week 4)
- Firefighting Observational Rubrics(week 6)
- Change in adaptation to stress as assessed by the Situational Adaptation to Stress Scale for Human Performance (SASS-HP)(about 11 weeks form baseline, end of study (about 19 weeks form baseline))
- Change in achievement score as assessed by the 10-Minute Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback assessment Assessment(Baseline, week 11)
- Change in average coherence as assessed by the 10-Minute Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback assessment Assessment(Baseline, week 11)
- Change in average heart beats per minute as assessed by the 10-Minute Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback assessment(Baseline, week 11)
