The 6 C's Cognitive Psychological First Aid Protocol

The SIX Cs model addresses the need to standardize PFA
interventions during an Acute Stress Reaction (ASR) and intends
to help shift the person from a helpless, passive and functional
incompetent state to active effective coping, within minutes, in
the immediate aftermath of a PTE. The model is based on four
theoretical and empirically tested concepts:
1) Hardiness.
2) Sense of Coherence.
3) Self-Efficacy.
4) on the Neuro-psychology of the stress response, specifically the
interaction between the limbic system and the prefrontal cortex
during stressful events.
