Is it necessary to implement the institute of officer-psychologists
in the armed forces? According to psychologist Karine Nalchajyan, the
civilized world has long stopped disputing the issue. International
experience shows that the existence of military psychologists in the
army is simply necessary.
Almost all state and private higher educational establishments in
our country have Departments of Psychology, but only the Pedagogical
University after Khachatur Abovyan prepares military psychologists,
and the graduates are mostly female. Karine Nalchajyan says, however,
she has never seen any female psychologist working in the army.
"The Armenian society is not yet ready to see women in the armed
forces. Greater attention should be paid to the involvement of male
psychologist with relevant education," she said.
There are officer psychologists in some military units, who are
graduates of the Vazgen Sargsyan Military Institute, Karine Nalchajyan
said, adding that the state should pay greater attention to the issue
and allocate financial means for the development of that institute.
