The purpose of the study was to explore if psycho-educational training was an effective means in reducing the negative symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder as measured by the Mississippi Scale for Combat-Related PTSD (M-PTSD). The training was designed to educate soldiers, returning home from a combat zone, on the ramifications of PTSD in hopes of reducing the rapidly inclining rate of PTSD development amongst soldiers who are exposed to traumatic events while deployed to a combat zone. The researcher set out to accomplish two objectives during this study: (1) administer psychoeducational training to an experimental group of combat veterans for a period of nine weeks; (2) administer the Mississippi Scale for Combat-Related PTSD (M-PTSD) as a pre- and post-assessment in order to assess the effectiveness of the psycho-educational training. The results from the respective study substantiated the claim of the effectiveness of providing such a psycho-educational training to combat veterans who were exposed to a traumatic encounter while serving in a combat zone. This research adds to the existing literature to show that psycho-educational training, in regards to reducing symptoms that were correlated to PTSD, has positive consequences if administered after a deployment.
