520 |aThe consideration of psychosocial effects in operational planning has received considerable attention, especially in the recent conduct of the Iraq and Afghanistan campaigns. Specifically, an escalation of effort towards winning “hearts and minds” vs. defeating an insurgency by kinetic means alone has placed significant expectations on understanding the psychosocial dimension of the indigenous population in theatre. This report addresses the insertion of this dimension into the operational planning process, especially for counterinsurgency. It begins with a high level view of the planning-execution cycle that qualifies the consideration of psychosocial factors, followed by descriptive planning guidance that quantifies the application and assessment of these factors, and closes with a discussion on the validity of this approach.
