Working in extreme environments requires a wide range of cognitive, psychological and social competences. Antarctica represents one of the most challenging habitats to work in due to its aridity, extremely cold weather, and isolated conditions. This study aimed to assess mood variations and coping strategies, as well as their possible modulation by group dynamics in a crew at the Belgrano II Argentine Antarctic Station throughout 1 year of confinement. Thirteen members of the Argentine Army completed emotional, coping and social dynamics questionnaires bimonthly in March, May, July, September and November. Results showed a significant decline in social dynamics scales, evidenced by decreases in perceived peer and hierarchical support. Additionally, coping strategies displayed a drop in mature defence throughout the expedition. A positive correlation was found between social support and recovery from stress. Our results highlight the importance of interpersonal relationships in psychological adjustment to isolation and extreme environments.

应对南极需求:隔离和禁闭的心理影响

在极端环境中工作需要广泛的认知、心理和社交能力。由于干旱、极冷的天气和孤立的条件,南极洲是最具挑战性的栖息地之一。本研究旨在评估情绪变化和应对策略,以及它们在被监禁 1 年期间在贝尔格拉诺 II 阿根廷南极站工作人员的群体动态可能产生的调节。阿根廷军队的 13 名成员在 3 月、5 月、7 月、9 月和 11 月双月完成了情绪、应对和社会动态问卷。结果显示社会动态量表显着下降,这可以通过感知的同伴和等级支持的减少来证明。此外,在整个探险过程中,应对策略显示出成熟防御的下降。在社会支持和压力恢复之间发现了正相关。我们的结果强调了人际关系在对孤立和极端环境的心理调整中的重要性。
