ABSTRACT

Using data from a field study conducted among soldiers during the 2014 Protective-Edge military operation (OPE) in the Gaza Strip, this article examines the effect of exposure to war on soldiers’ emotions, economic expectations, and willingness to take risks. The results suggest that combat soldiers who took part in OPE were more willing to take risks and more optimistic. The analytical results indicate that among combat soldiers, levels of negative emotions were negatively related to individual economic expectations, while being present in the staging area close to OPE significantly and positively affected the level of their economic expectations.

士兵在军事行动中的情绪，经济期望和冒险态度

摘要

本文使用2014年加沙地带“保护边”军事行动期间对士兵进行的实地研究数据，研究了战争暴露对士兵情绪，经济期望和冒险意愿的影响。结果表明，参加OPE的作战士兵更愿意冒险并且更加乐观。分析结果表明，在战斗士兵中，负面情绪的水平与个人的经济期望负相关，而在靠近OPE的登台地区则表现出显着的负面影响，并对其经济期望水平产生积极影响。
