Abstract

Objective The aim of the study is to test the efficacy of the 22ZERO Trauma Resiliency Protocol (TR-P) on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom severity among current and former law enforcement officers. Methods The study used a retrospective, pre/post intervention design to test the effects of the TR-P on measures of self-reported symptom severity. Results One hundred twenty-eight current and former law enforcement officers were exposed to the TR-P treatment. All participants were administered the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 PTSD Checklist and other psychological assessments before and after exposure. Participants experienced a significant reduction in symptom severity, suggesting that exposure to the TR-P reduced the effects of PTSD in this sample of law enforcement officers. Conclusions The 22ZERO TR-P may be an efficacious mechanism for reducing PTSD symptom severity among current and former law enforcement officers. It should be tested using a randomized trial and a longer follow-up period.
