dc.description.abstract | This study conducts a meta-narrative analysis of prior studies to identify effective stress management and recovery techniques compatible with Navy environments. The study aligns the Navy’s Culture and Resilience goals to empower Sailors to tolerate and recover from stress; to foster toughness, trust, and connectedness throughout the Fleet; and to build a more lethal warfighting force. This study is the first of a phased two-study effort, with the second study to be proposed in a subsequent program cycle. For the initial study, the research team conducts a broad-scope literature review from a whole-person primary prevention perspective to identify effective stress-optimization and recovery techniques and to map them with the Navy-specific components of the Total Force Fitness (TFF). Further, the study develops and administers a questionnaire to augment the meta-narrative analysis and capture the prevalence of behavioral techniques Sailors use to manage stress, the frequency of use, and Sailors’ attitudes towards using them. In addition, the researchers catalogue Navy stress management programs and resources aimed to support stress prevention and stress recovery for Sailors. These three approaches help inform assessment plans for stress prevention and recovery effectiveness within the Navy Culture and Force Resilience programs. | |
