| مستخلص: | Law enforcement officers are often among the first responders to critical incidents, and over time, these exposures can have cumulative and detrimental effects on their psychological and emotional well-being. While the adverse impact of trauma exposure on law enforcement officers has been acknowledged, their mental health experiences are frequently overlooked. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of post-traumatic stress symptoms, compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction, moral injury, and self-compassion among officers frequently exposed to critical incidents. A sample of N=177 law enforcement officers was recruited from police departments from the states of Florida and New York. Findings indicated that officers in operational units reported significantly higher levels of secondary trauma and moral injury compared to those in non-operational units. Additionally, self-compassion was found to be negatively associated with PTSD symptoms and moral injury. Finally, years of service were positively correlated with compassion fatigue (burnout, secondary traumatic stress), and moral injury. The study concludes with clinical implications and recommendations for future research. |
