Today, Ukrainians suffer more from fatigue (only 36% do not feel it) and lack of adequate sleep (only 44% have adequate sleep). Such reactions of the body are natural for stress.. Despite this, other emotional and moral indicators of citizens are in better condition..

Women have a lower level of hardiness than men. Resilience also decreases with age.. Having a job has a positive effect on resilience: those who work fully or partially feel better than those who do not work.

Those who have relatives who are fighting today have a higher level of hardiness. Perhaps this is due to an increased sense of responsibility and worries for loved ones who are in potential danger..
