Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: The ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war has been linked to mental health problems in the Ukrainian general population. To date, however, scarce research has examined the mental health of psychosocial support workers (PSWs) in Ukraine who have a burdensome workload in the context of ongoing conflict. This study aimed to examine the prevalence and correlates of burnout, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and suicidal ideation (SI) in PSWs in Ukraine during the Russian-Ukrainian war.
METHODS: One hundred seventy-eight PSWs in Ukraine completed a survey assessing war exposure, mental health, and psychosocial characteristics.
RESULTS: A total 59.6% of PSWs screened positive for burnout, 38.2% for PTSD, and 10.7% for current SI. Lower optimism was associated with greater odds of burnout. Greater distress from witnessing war-related destruction, lower optimism, lower presence of meaning in life, and lower levels of close social relationships were associated with greater odds of burnout. Lower presence of meaning in life was associated with greater odds of SI.
CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study highlight the mental health challenges faced by PSWs in Ukraine during the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war. They further suggest that interventions to foster meaning in life and promote social connectedness may \"help the helpers\" during this ongoing conflict.

摘要：
目标：正在进行的俄罗斯-乌克兰战争与乌克兰普通人群的心理健康问题有关。迄今为止,然而,稀缺的研究已经检查了乌克兰的心理社会支持工作者（PSW）的心理健康，他们在持续冲突的背景下工作量繁重。这项研究旨在检查职业倦怠的患病率和相关性，创伤后应激障碍（PTSD），以及俄罗斯-乌克兰战争期间乌克兰PSW中的自杀意念（SI）。
方法：乌克兰的一百七十八个PSW完成了一项评估战争暴露的调查，心理健康,和社会心理特征。
结果：共有59.6%的PSW筛查出职业倦怠呈阳性，PTSD的38.2%，和当前SI的10.7%。较低的乐观情绪与较高的倦怠几率有关。目睹与战争有关的破坏而造成更大的痛苦，较低的乐观情绪，生活中的意义较低，和较低水平的密切社会关系与更大的职业倦怠的可能性相关。生活中意义的较低存在与SI的较高几率相关。
结论：这项研究的结果突出了乌克兰在俄罗斯-乌克兰战争期间PSW面临的心理健康挑战。他们进一步建议，在这场持续的冲突中，促进生活意义和促进社会联系的干预措施可能会“帮助帮助者”。
