To a large extent, the attitude determines the assessment of phenomena and events of life, the way of reacting and interpreting the experience.

The dynamics of a person's emotional response to war, negative emotional and other psychological consequences of experiencing war events are described.

Possible positive psychological changes that can occur in a person as a result of a traumatic event are described, in particular, such as «post-traumatic growth». The essence of the process of post-traumatic growth of personality is revealed.
