Personal Author: | Walsh, Tova B.,Dayton, Carolyn J.,Erwin, Michael S.,Muzik, Maria.,Busuito, Alexandra.,Rosenblum, Katherine L. |
Publication Year: | 2014 |
Abstract: | Although often eagerly anticipated, reunification after deployment poses challenges for families, including adjusting to the parent-soldier's return, re-establishing roles and routines, and the potentially necessary accommodation to combat-related injuries or psychological effects. Fourteen male service members, previously deployed to a combat zone, parent to at least one child under seven years of age, were interviewed about their relationships with their young children. Principles of grounded theory guided data analysis to identify key themes related to parenting young children after deployment. Participants reported significant levels of parenting stress and identified specific challenges, including difficulty reconnecting with children, adapting expectations from military to...more |

Document Title: | Engaging OEF/OIF/OND Military Parents in a Home-Based Reintegration Program: A Consideration of Strategies. |
Personal Author: | Ross, Abigail M.,DeVoe, Ellen R. |
Publication Year: | 2014 |
Abstract: | For more than a decade, the long wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have placed tremendous and cumulative strain on U.S. military personnel and their families. The high operational tempo, length, and number of deployments -- and greater in-theater exposure to threat -- have resulted in well-documented psychological health concerns among service members and veterans. In addition, there is increasing and compelling evidence describing the significant deleterious impact of the deployment cycle on family members, including children, in military-connected families. However, rates of engagement and service utilization in prevention and intervention services continue to lag far below apparent need among service members...more |

Personal Author: | Hooper, Lisa M.,Moore, Heather M.,Smith, Annie K. |
Publication Year: | 2014 |
Abstract: | This article reviews select literature that describes unique aspects of the challenges, roles, and responsibilities that family members may face as a result of the military culture and military family system.

Parentification has long been linked with negative outcomes investigated in the family and clinical psychology literature. This article summarizes the overlap in constructs and theoretical frameworks related to parentification, which appear in the family and clinical psychology literature that may have transportability to the youth and family military literature base. Directions for future...more |

Document Title: | Impact of Childhood Maltreatment on Physical Health-Related Quality of Life in U.S. Active Duty Military Personnel and Combat Veterans. |
Personal Author: | Aversa, Laura H.,Lemmer, Jennifer.,Nunnink, Sarah,McLay, Robert N.,Baker, Dewleen G. |
Publication Year: | 2014 |
Abstract: | Previous studies have found an association between childhood maltreatment (CM) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and to a lesser extent have considered whether psychiatric symptoms may explain the relationship. This study aimed to further our understanding of the link between CM and HRQoL by testing whether posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or depressive symptoms mediate the relationship between childhood maltreatment and physical HRQoL. Mediation models were examined in a sample of male Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) active duty and combat veterans (n = 249). PTSD and depressive symptoms mediated the relationship between CM and overall physical...more |
