Abstract:

This quantitative survey study explored relationships between a law enforcement supervisor's personal characteristics and the attitude a supervisor had towards the Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) program. The study solicited law enforcement supervisors (n = 6635) who were graduates of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's National Academy (FBINA). A modified survey instrument assisted in the collection of demographic data and the assessment of attitudes towards the CISM program. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics in the form of an analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistical test and a multiple regression analysis that used a backwards-stepwise format assisted in the examination of the collected data. The results indicated time away from the duties of a line-level patrol officer, investigator, or detective, and time in law enforcement shared a weak relationship with a supervisor's attitude towards the CISM program. More specifically, the longer the time span for each, the more positive the supervisor's attitude should be towards the program. Unfortunately, while these variables may have been deemed significant, the results are virtually meaningless since the model resulted in only two percent of the variance in attitude. Although the study's findings only indicated a weak link between a law enforcement supervisor's characteristics and the attitude a supervisor has towards the CISM program, it also showed supervisors within the study overwhelmingly supported the program. Knowing this support exists could still provide stress management program managers with invaluable insight, as processes are developed to mitigate critical incident stress in law enforcement.

Full text
Abstract:
The psychological health and safety of firefighters has become a significant issue for fire services in Ireland owing both to recent legislative changes and to increasing awareness of the potentially stressful nature of dealing with emergency situations. Critical incident stress management (CISM) initiatives have been introduced with a view to supporting the psychological health of fire crews and with the aim of protecting individuals from developing a psychiatric illness, namely post-traumatic stress disorder. While research has consistently questioned the efficacy of such interventions, there has been little attention paid to how firefighters themselves actually construct their own experiences of dealing with emergency situations in the course of their work. This thesis addresses this imbalance by conducting both a qualitative and quantitative investigation into how firefighters in Ireland talk about the incidents they respond to. The first study details a discourse analysis which was conducted on the transcripts of seven focus groups which was conducted with 89 participating retained firefighters. Key discursive constructions were identified and explored in light of how best to provide psychological supports to fire crews. In order to further investigate these discursive constructions a quantitative study was then conducted with an alternate group of firefighters (n=40) using Q methodology. This triangulation allowed for subject positions to emerge that had not heretofore been considered when providing psychological supports tofirefighters. A number of important findings emerged. First, many of the subject positions explored highlight how firefighters primarily draw upon discourses of professionalism and how constructs of the “crew” can strongly mediate their experiences of the “critical 3 incident”. Secondly, the research highlights how many of the notions inherent in the Mitchell model of CISM were not actually borne out in the fire fighter’s own constructions, particularly with regard to the focus on the “critical incident’ as being always/already a source of a traumatic response. These insights were then used by the Researcher to propose a framework of psychological support for fire services in Ireland.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the identification of critical incidents in schools, the factors influencing teachers' coping, and the implications for crisis intervention and management. An argument is developed that school communities may be best served by a salutogenic (wellness) perspective for crisis response and recovery, which focuses on the personal and collective resources that contribute to successful coping and mental health. Three aims were addressed. First considered was the potential for commonly occuring events (e.g., the death or injury of a teacher or student, assault, vandalism or damage to school property, professional misconduct on the part of a teacher), to evoke stress, grief, or trauma responses in individuals and organisations. Emphasised was the nature of individual differences in responses to such critical incidents, and ways of dealing effectively with the varying character and intensity of such responses. The second aim was to examine the influence of pre-existing personal wellbeing and resources on individuals' responses, adjustment and growth after an incident. The third aim was to explore the interface between the individual and the organisation following critical incidents, and the nature and impact of intervention and management strategies on an individuals' sense of wellbeing and ongoing investment within the organisation. Two related studies investigated the impact of critical incidents on teachers. In Study 1, 245 teachers completed a self-report questionnaire that gathered quantitative data comprising three measures of personality and positive functioning (Psychological Wellbeing & Sense of Coherence), demographic data, and teachers' previous experience of critical incidents. Teachers also provided an autobiographical account of a personally significant critical incident. Results showed that commonly occuring events, such as the death of a student or teacher, and other issues such as professional misconduct of a colleague, professional conflict, theft and vandalism were regarded as critical incidents by teachers. The four distinct response categories indentified (negative feelings, positive cognitions, negative conditions, & negative impact on functioning) were characteristically grief or stress responses rather than those associated with psychological trauma. Significant relationships were identified among the personality variables and the measures of positive functioning. Extraversion was positively related to positive functioning, and introversion negatively related. The findings point to personal and collective issues that have the potential to facilitate and enhance coping and recovery after a critical incident. In particular, six management strategies (Wellness Factors), comprising both personal and organisational components, emerged as potential contributors to ongoing psychological wellbeing, sense of coherence, and posttraumatic growth outcomes. These Wellness Factors were identified as: (a) emotional and practical support; (b) active involvement; (c) responding according to individual need; (d) access to information; (e) readiness; and (f) leadership. Study 2 involved a more detailed examination of the experience of 30 teachers following a critical incident subsequent to the completion of Study 1. This study examined personality, posttraumatic growth and personal trauma history (gathered through a self-report questionnaire), in conjunction with the pre-event personal characteristics gathered in Study 1. The second component of Study 2 consisted of a semi-structured interview that explored the teachers' personal experiences of the critical incident. Results revealed that PCI Extraversion showed significant positive relationships with Psychological Wellbeing and Sense of Coherence. PCI Emotionality showed a significant positive relationships with Posttraumatic Growth. Interview data showed that 22.5% of teachers reported a high incidence of Acute Stress responses (DSM-IV-TR criteria). In addition, anger directed at the school's leadership, and conflict between disillusionment with authority and the impact of the event. Strong negative relationships were identified among Extraversion and Openness, and the Wellness factors. Results showed that moderate stress responses are associated with Posttraumatic Growth at a personal level. However, the same responses can evoke disillusionment and cynicism at an organisational level. The findings are discussed in terms of the personal and organisational factors that contribute to healing and recovery following critical incidents. Implications for critical incident management planning, intervention and recovery are considered, along with directions for future research.

Abstract:
The world of operational police command is a challenging and complex one, where significant command decisions need to be made amid uncertainty and within narrowing time-frames. The consequences attached to these decisions can often be far reaching and have been in some cases grave, as in the case of disasters such as those at Bradford and Hillsborough football stadia. Accordingly, there is a pressing need to instil within key command officers, the skills and the experience necessary to make these bold and effective command decisions, but within an environment where such dire Consequences (as those that follow a disaster) do not arise from mistakes or inadequacy. The question then becomes how to create such an environment which is at the same time both safe and sufficiently realistic to provoke similar decisional reactions to those that would occur at a real event. Even if this was achievable a further stage would be necessary in which such learning came to be transferred back into an operational command situation. This thesis explores in a systemic way the design, implementation, testing, modification and re-testing of a critical incident management command simulator whose central tenet was to create an immersive simulation that, by virtue of its high degree of fidelity, was capable of engendering experience of the management of critical incidents for a target population comprising senior police command officers. From tentative beginnings to its operational installation as a fully functional command training simulator, this thesis maps out the key development decisions which were informed by the findings of a series of trials, observations, interviews, surveys and physiological measurements. At the same time, it describes the theoretical models used to explain the relationships between and functionality of the system and its individual components, whilst exploring the dimension of human computer interaction. This is action research in that the findings it generated led to an incremental series of modifications to what became an operational training simulator (named MINERVA) on which useful and transferable command training actually took place.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskor riskerar dagligen att hamna i situationer som kan upplevas som kritiska. Syftet med denna systematiska litteraturstudie var därför att undersöka vilka händelser som sjuksköterskan upplever som kritiska och hur dessa händelser sedan upplevs och hanteras. Heideggers hermeneutiskt inriktade fenomenologi användes som teoretisk referensram i arbetet. Metod: Genom databaserna PubMed, CINAHL och Medline hittades 17 artiklar som var av intresse, efter kvalitetsgranskning valdes tio artiklar ut för att redovisas i arbetet. Resultat: Händelser som sjuksköterskan bland annat ansåg som kritiska var händelser som involverade barn, allvarligt skadade personer samt akuta händelser som kunde vara andnings- eller hjärtstopp. Upplevelsen av en sådan händelse var varierande, den kunde vara ledsam, sjuksköterskan kunde känna stor osäkerhet och gav en stark trötthet. För att hantera en sådan känsla tog sjuksköterskan till olika tekniker för att hantera situationen. Ett sätt för att minska ångesten var att skämta och använda humor, ett annat sätt var att söka stöd hos sina arbetskamrater. Samtidigt var det också viktigt att det fanns ett formellt stöd inom organisationen som sjuksköterskan kunde ta hjälp av ifall händelsen blev allt för övermäktig. Konklusion: Sjuksköterskan skall vara medveten om att kritiska händelser kan leda till allvarliga stressreaktioner och vara uppmärksam på ifall tecken på utbrändhet visas.
Background: Nurses risk every day to get into situations that could be perceived as critical. The purpose of this systematic literature review was to investigate the events, which the nurse feels are critical and how these events since perceived and handled. Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology was used as a focused theoretical framework of the work. Methods: The PubMed, CINAHL and Medline found 17 articles that were of interest, after the quality review was ten articles out for recognition at work. Results: Events that nurses in particular felt that was critical incidents involving children, serious injuries and emergencies that could be respiratory or cardiac arrest. The experience of such an event were varied, it could be tedious, the nurse could feel great uncertainty and gave a strong fatigue. To deal with such a sense took the nurse to the different techniques to handle the situation. One way to reduce the anxiety was making jokes and using humour, another way was to seek support from their colleagues. Meanwhile it was also important that there was a formal support of the organization that the nurse was able to enlist the help of whether the incident was too overpowering. Conclusion: The nurse must be aware that critical incidents can lead to severe stress reactions and be aware of if signs of burnout appear.

Abstract:
Critical Incident Stress has the potential to affect emergency services personnel to the degree that it can change the way the responder acts and reacts in all facets of his or her life, including the job and his or her family. Research into these potential effects has produced a greater understanding of the responders experiences within a short period of time after the perceived critical incident. This study investigates the long-term effects of critical incident stress among emergency responders from two cities in the three emergency services professions were interviewed to determine what their experiences were at least six months post critical incident. A structured incident had in three areas of teh emergency responders lives: impact on job, impact on the individual responder, and perceived impact on emergency responders families. For particpants, symptoms of Critical Incident Stress lasted between 6 months and 2 years after the perceived critical incident. Analysis of the data indicatees that single responder critical incidents have the potential to negatively affect emergency responders resulting in the loss of enthusiasm and passion for their work, debilitating psychological distress, and isolation from valued support systems. Long-term effects of Critical Incident Stress change the perceptions that responders have about the job, about themselves, and the relationships with their families. The culture of emergency services, changing identities, and the lack of support from both within the system and outside of the system were seen as variables that contribute to the long-term effects of Critical Incident Stress.

Abstract:
As pipeline operators strive for safe and robust operations, the desire for improved risk awareness and operational safety, or process safety, culture continues to grow. The need for improvements related to operational safety has been felt for years throughout the oil and gas industry, but in recent years, it has also come to the forefront of the minds of pipeline operators. While most operators do not “process” anything, the principles of effective operational safety management are being stressed in pipeline incident investigations and communications from regulators. While many organizations have found ways to improve occupational safety concerns, operational safety has remained overwhelming. It is often easier for an employee to envision the consequence that could result if he or she is splashed with a chemical; however, even an experienced operator may have a hard time imagining how what seems like a minor integrity event could escalate to a major incident. Two critical building blocks in developing awareness of risk and operational safety are 1) ownership of risks, and 2) the ability to speak one common risk language. By giving field personnel the opportunity to maintain registers of the risks that are important to them, not necessarily the largest risks, both of these building blocks can be developed concurrently. This paper outlines how the use of field-owned risk registers can help companies of all sizes, heritages, and cultures to improve methods for hazard identification, risk analysis, and risk control. As field personnel learn the language of risk, become familiar with ways to analyze potential consequences, and begin to understand how likely it is that an operational upset or incorrect operation could result in a major incident, personnel who otherwise might not participate in these types of activities begin to take interest. The paper provides insight into how, if implemented correctly, these risk registers can introduce risk management at all levels of the organization and provide a sense of ownership in the field regarding risk and operational safety, while still improving integrity, personal safety, and environmental protection.

Abstract:
The ability to monitor critical environment parameters of nuclear plants at all times, particularly during and after a disruptive accident, is vital for the safety of plant personnel, rescue and recovery crews, and the surrounding communities. Conventional hard-wired assets that depend on supplied power may be decimated as a result of such events, as witnessed in the Japanese Fukushima nuclear power plant in March 2011. Self-powered monitoring devices operating on a wireless platform, on the other hand, may survive such calamity and remain functional. The devices would be prepositioned at strategic locations, particularly where the dangerous build-up of contamination and radiation may preclude subsequent manned entrance and surveillance. Equipped with sensors for β-γ radiation, neutrons, hydrogen gas, temperature, humidity, pressure, and water level, as well as with criticality alarms and imaging equipment for heat, video, and other capabilities, these devices can provide vital surveillance information for assessing the extent of plant damage, mandating responses (e.g., evacuation before impending hydrogen explosion), and enabling overall safe and efficient recovery in a disaster. A radio frequency identification (RFID)-based system — called ARG-US — may be modified and adapted for this task. Developed by Argonne for DOE, ARG-US (meaning “watchful guardian”) has been used successfully to monitor and track sensitive nuclear materials packages at DOE sites. It utilizes sensors in the tags to continuously monitor the state of health of the packaging and promptly disseminates alarms to authorized users when any of the preset sensor thresholds is violated. By adding plant-specific monitoring sensors to the already strong sensor suite and adopting modular hardware, firmware, and software subsystems that are tailored for specific subsystems of a plant, a Remote Area Modular Monitoring (RAMM) system, built on a wireless sensor network (WSN) platform, is being developed by Argonne National Laboratory. ARG-US RAMM, powered by on-board battery, can sustain extended autonomous surveillance operation during and following an incident. The benefits could be invaluable to such critical facilities as nuclear power plants, research and test reactors, fuel cycle manufacturing centers, spent-fuel dry-cask storage facilities, and other nuclear installations.

Abstract:
Managing the integrity of pipeline system is the primary goal of every pipeline operator. To ensure the integrity of pipeline system, its health assessment is very important and critical for ensuring safety of environment, human resources and its assets. In long term, managing pipeline integrity is an investment to asset protection which ultimately results in cost saving. Typically, the health assessment to managing the integrity of pipeline system is a function of operational experience and corporate philosophy. There is no single approach that can provide the best solution for all pipeline system. Only a comprehensive, systematic and integrated integrity management program provides the means to improve the safety of pipeline systems. Such programme provides the information for an operator to effectively allocate resources for appropriate prevention, detection and mitigation activities that will result in improved safety and a reduction in the number of incidents. Presently GAIL (INDIA) LTD. is operating & maintaining approximately 10,000Kms of natural gas/RLNG/LPG pipeline and HVJ Pipeline is the largest pipeline network of India which transports more than 50% of total gas being consumed in this country. HVJ pipeline system consists of more than 4500 Kms of pipeline having diameter range from 04” to 48”, which consist of piggable as well as non-piggable pipeline. Though, lengthwise non-piggable pipeline is very less but their importance cannot be ignored in to the totality because of their critical nature. Typically, pipeline with small length & connected to dispatch terminal are non-piggable and these pipelines are used to feed the gas to the consumer. Today pipeline industries are having three different types of inspection techniques available for inspection of the pipeline. 1. Inline inspection 2. Hydrostatic pressure testing 3. Direct assessment (DA) Inline inspection is possible only for piggable pipeline i.e. pipeline with facilities of pig launching & receiving and hydrostatic pressure testing is not possible for the pipeline under continuous operation. Thus we are left with direct assessment method to assess health of the non-piggable pipelines. Basically, direct assessment is a structured multi-step evaluation method to examine and identify the potential problem areas relating to internal corrosion, external corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking using ICDA (Internal Corrosion Direct Assessment), ECDA (External Corrosion Direct Assessment) and SCCDA (Stress Corrosion Direct Assessment). All the above DA is four steps iterative method & consist of following steps; a. Pre assessment b. Indirect assessment c. Direct assessment d. Post assessment Considering the importance of non-piggable pipeline, integrity assessment of following non piggable pipeline has done through direct assessment method. 1. 30 inch dia pipeline of length 0.6 km and handling 18.4 MMSCMD of natural gas 2. 18 inch dia pipeline of length 3.65 km and handling 4.0 MMSCMD of natural gas 3. 12 inch dia pipeline of length 2.08 km and handling 3.4 MMSCMD of natural gas In addition to ICDA, ECDA & SCCDA, Long Range Ultrasonic Thickness (LRUT-a guided wave technology) has also been carried out to detect the metal loss at excavated locations observed by ICDA & ECDA. Direct assessment survey for above pipelines has been conducted and based on the survey; high consequence areas have been identified. All the high consequence area has been excavated and inspected. No appreciable corrosion and thickness loss have observed at any area. However, pipeline segments have been identified which are most vulnerable and may have corrosion in future.

Abstract:
As a result of numerous stress corrosion cracking incidents in the 1980s and early 1990 the National Energy Board (NEB) held an Inquiry1 in 1995 on the SCC failure mechanism and how to prevent failures. One of the recommendations of the Inquiry was Companies were to develop a SCC management program to proactively identify and mitigate SCC. Based on the apparent success of the SCC programs in significantly reducing SCC failures, the NEB revised its Onshore Pipeline Regulations in 1999 (OPR-99)2 to require companies to develop an integrity management program (IMP) for all hazards. This paper discusses the evolution of integrity management program (IMP) requirements and evaluates incident rates and other performance metrics to determine if there is evidence that IMPs have contributed to the improvement of safety of pipelines. The paper highlights the challenges associated with gathering incident and IMP performance metrics and evaluating the data to determine if there is a correlation between the implementation of IMP and pipeline safety. In addition, the analysis discusses the challenges associated with comparing data between different countries and regulatory jurisdictions. Suggestions for future improvement are identified.

Abstract:
A molecular dynamic method was used to simulate the film growth process of ionized cluster beam deposition for Fe clusters depositing on Cu substrate with low energy. The tight-binding many-body potential is used to simulate the interaction between atoms. It will focus on the diverse deposition process parameters including incident energy, and substrate temperature, and it will use atomic stress tensor to obtain the residual stress after the deposition process. During simulations, we will find out the critical value of the incident energy to create epitaxy growth or interfacial intermixing, observe the roughness of epitaxy growth surface to determine the quality of film, and compute the residual stress. From the simulation results, the effects of the deposition process parameters on the morphology of the deposited film could be evaluated.

Abstract:
Increased climate variability, including more frequent and intense drought, is projected for the southwestern region of the United States. Increased temperatures and reduced precipitation lower soil water availability, resulting in decreased plant productivity and altered species composition, which may affect forage quality and quantity. Reduced forage quality and increased heat stress attributable to warmer temperatures could lead to decreased livestock performance in this system, which is extensively used for livestock grazing. Mitigating the effects of increasing drought is critical to social and ecological stability in the region. Reduced stocking rates and/or a change in livestock breeds and/or grazing practices are general recommendations that could be implemented to cope with increased climatic stress. Ecological Sites (ESs) and their associated state-and-transition models (STMs) are tools to help land managers implement and evaluate responses to disturbances. The projected change in climate will vary depending upon geographic location. Vulnerability assessments and adaptation strategies are necessary at the local level to inform local management decisions and help to ameliorate the effects of climate change on rangelands. The USDA Southwest Climate Hub and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) worked together to produce this drought vulnerability assessment at the Major Land Resource Area (MLRA) level: it is based on ESs/STMs that will help landowners and government agencies to identify and develop adaptation options for drought on rangelands. The assessment illustrates how site-specific information can be used to help minimize the effects of drought on rangelands and to support informed decision-making for selecting management adaptations within MLRA 41.
