Strategy for Dealing with Stress and Burning-out of Commanders of the Croatian Military at Diferent Commands

In this research we were interested in finding out if there were differences among commanders at different command levels in the level of stress measured with burn-outs and in their stress coping strategies. The study was conducted on 421 commanders who performed their duties at diferent levels: non-commissioned officers (N=195), officers at platoon or company levels (N=87), officers at battalion levels (N=94), staff officers (45). These commanders, with minimal pre- war military experience, had developed their specific stress coping strategies during the Homelend war. Applied questioners: Questioner of symptoms of burn-out (USPI). Questioner of stress coping strategies (SU-PSD), Self-estimate for efficiency of dealing with life difficulties, and External locus control's scale. In the manifestation of symptoms for burning out NCO's show the most symptoms. Staff CO's more than others use strategy oriented to the problems. CO's at battalion levels less than others use avoidance of problems strategy. There were no statistically differences in using seeking social support and life optimism.
