SIGVET-MSPI is an information technology approach to psychological intervention that integrates methods from psychology, psychophysiology, neuropsychology and psychological treatment, including cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, and desensitization. It uses psychophysiological approaches to forming neural connections based on stable associative functional links, external and internal inhibition, and the reconsolidation of emotional memory engrams.
The authors describe the technology as a means of reconsolidating emotional memory, preventing negative psychoemotional reactions and attitudes, changing coping strategies and maladaptive psychological defense mechanisms, and supporting self-regulation. They report that it develops new skills and automatic patterns of appropriate responses to stressful situations.
