N2  - ABSTRACT:  This study focuses on the assessment of the personality patterns and coping responses of selected Army soldiers assigned in the combat filed units of 2nd Infantry Division, Philippine Army (2ID, PA), in correlation with the crisis intervention program that is being implemented in the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).  Specifically, the researcher measured and compared the personality patterns and coping adjustments of the respondents before and after the crisis intervention program. Also, the efficacy of the existing crisis intervention program in the AFP known as the Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) was assessed based on the results of the study.  In order to measure the personality patterns and coping adjustments of the selected Army soldiers, standardized test instruments were used. The Guilford Zimmerman Temperament Survey (GZTS) was administered to measure the personality patterns of the soldiers, while the Coping Responses Inventory- Adult Form (CRI-Adult) was used to assess their coping adjustments. Furthermore, to gather qualitative data, the Crisis Intervention Assessment Dorm which was an adaptation of the AFP's CISD report Form was facilitated by the researcher.  The study applied the quasi- experimental research design, and the pretest-posttest method in identifying the difference between the personality patterns and coping adjustments of the respondents before and after the crisis intervention program. The respondents of the study were the selected Army soldiers who belonged to Class 16-2012 of the Restructured Reenlistment System Training of the Division Training Unit of 2ID, PA. The 88 respondents of the study were screened through purposive sampling. The criteria set were that the respondents must be from 21-35 years old, at least 3 years of combat experience, and have identified problems on either of the following areas: physical, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and spiritual. To spilt the respondents into experimental and control group, random sampling was utilized.  Findings showed that the intervention had increased the Experimental Group's inclination on Masculinity but revealed far from being Thoughtful. In addition, a significant difference was established on the scale of Restraint which meant that the group had become more serious-minded and self-controlled after the treatment. On the other hand, the Control group, after the physical activities, gained highest on Friendliness and lowest also on Thoughtfulness. As for the coping adjustments, both groups gained an identical result despite of a dissimilar intervention: highest on the scale of Seeking Alternative Rewards and lowest on Acceptance and Resignation.  In conclusion, the CISD was assessed as effective based only on the specific areas where the experimental group had improved. But as a whole, the program was not able to reach the objective of enhancing all areas of the personality patterns and coping adjustments of the respondents.  Based from the outcome of the study, the following are therefore recommended: that the AFP Mental Health Team should develop its crisis intervention program by introducing carefully selected physical activities; that the intervention be conducted at least once every year in all military camps, together with a follow-up to assess the efficacy of the program; and that soldiers be given more opportunity for group interaction
