ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of CISD by conducting a survey of 30 firefighters participated in a course of “CISD leader” at Busan Fire Academy. The results showed that the score of stress response decreased from .68 to .44 after the CISD session, and the change was statistically significant (t=2.14, p<.05). The score of PTSD decreased from .52 to .42, which was not statistically significant (t=.85, p>.05). Our results support the previous literature that the CISD is not effective for improvement on PTSD. Although CISD is one of the useful crisis intervention programs, a more thoughtful process should be implemented based on empirical studies when it is employed.
