[Mental disadaptation in emergency situations (accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station)].
Phenomenology and time course of psychic disorders in persons exposed to life-threatening emergency situations provoked by the Chernobyl accident have been analyzed. Three states could be identified according to differences in their psychogenic impact: acute, delayed and long-term. Psychic dysadaptation and disorders might be presented as results of a single process beginning with acute anxiety responses followed by asthenic disorders which backed the relatively steady neurotic and psychopathic states.
