Psychological Profile of Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape Instructor Personnel.

Abstract

The Psychological Profile of Navy Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) Instructor Personnel is critical to the success of this type of training. Sixty-four SERE instructors were administered a clinical interview; the Shipley, MMPI-2, NEO PI-R, Rosenzweig P-F Study, Locke-Wallace Marital Inventory, and the Holmes-Rahe Life Change Index. The findings revealed that the SERE instructor personnel were a mature, bright, and psychologically healthy group of individuals. The extant Navy criteria for SERE instructor duty is appropriate and should be continued.
