Anger, Social Cognition and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder in Former French Military Personnel

Former military personnel eligible for the study are identified by the Pension and Occupational Risks Service (SPRP) through a computerized selection process using a database of individuals who meet the eligibility criteria. The SPRP serves as the internal partner that provides the investigator with a database of pensioners identified as eligible for the study. Based on this list, which is compiled according to the inclusion criteria, the principal investigator is responsible for sending a recruitment letter (via email; Visit 1: group information session) to eligible participants to invite them to participate in the study. The SPRP serves as the study's information center. It is responsible for sending a recruitment letter by regular mail (Visit 1: group information session) to eligible participants to invite them to participate in the study. Following this, participants will contact the investigator, who will conduct the individual information session (Visit 2), verify the inclusion criteria, and obtain their verbal consent. Initially, the quantitative component of the study will be conducted via a web link that will be sent to participants so they can complete the online tests and questionnaires (see CRF-Parts 2 through 5) on a dedicated platform on their own (Visit 3). Next, participants who are eligible for the qualitative component of the study will be contacted by phone (visit 4) and, with their consent, will participate in a semi-structured interview (visit 5).
