title: [The dynamics of personality changes in combatants of local wars and armed conflicts].
abstract: 326 combatants have been examined using clinical-and-experimental psychological methods in outpatient and hospital conditions in order to reveal personality changes as a result of transient combat stress. The dynamics of these changes in pre- and post-combat periods has been described. Some personality peculiarities acquired in combat conditions aggravated combatants' rehabilitation to the peace life, which should be taken into consideration during rehabilitation. The medicopsychological correction of the combatants with personality accentuation must be made in view of the variety of these disorders.
