Introduction: The development of diagnostic procedures for various diseases and conditions is an important task of scientific research in psychiatry. Objectives: The aim of this work was evaluation of possibility of using brain computer interfaces as method of instrumental diagnostics post-traumatic stress disorder. Methods: The study involved 84 male, including 33 practically healthy persons; 23 persons with post-traumatic stress disorder, 28 alcohol abused with acute stress reaction in the past. Methods: psychopathological, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT]; Mezzich quality of life scale, civilian version of the Mississippi Scale (MS) for the evaluation of post-traumatic reactions in adaptation by NV Tarabrina; The MindWave MW001 single-channel NeuroSky Inc neural headset with MindWay Shulte application and MindRec software was used to evaluate attention and relaxation during the study. Results: The data were processed using mathematical statistics. In the first phase of the work, the validity of the formation of qualitatively different comparison groups was verified by using quantified assessments of the severity of post-stress reactions, alcoholrelated disorders and quality of life. The second was devoted to the evaluation of attention and relaxation indices using the singlechannel MindWave MW001 NeuroSky Inc. The evaluation of these indicators was carried out in two qualitatively different states: in a state of calm wakefulness and in a state of mental load (work with Schulte tables). As a result BCI (such as MindWave MW001) using established as a method of instrumental diagnostics of poststress disorders and comorbid conditions. Conclusions: Main and additional neurophysiological markers of poststress disorders (compared to alcohol abuse) were shown. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
