What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the effects of the ongoing crisis in New Caledonia on military personnel, particularly focusing on operational fatigue and chronic stress disorder. It will evaluate how prolonged exposure to stressors, such as extended working hours and reduced rest, affects soldiers' mental states. The study will also identify protective organizational and human factors that may help mitigate operational fatigue. Conducted over two months, it will involve healthy military personnel who are permanently stationed in New Caledonia.
