Abstract
The psychic endurance of soldiers taking part in military engagement has a substantial influence on the success of the military force. Consequently researchers pay increased attention to examining the collective and personal factors of military action, in the course of which the identification of stimuli evoking behaviour and the mitigation of their influence on the psychic function is of utmost importance. The first part of the article introduces the life threatening stressors in direct contact with military operations and the related complex emotional reactions. Next the author enumerates protective factors which can be target areas of trainings involving conscious psychological developments.
