The Implication of Combat-Induced Stress Reaction, PTSD, and Attachment in Parenting Among War Veterans

Type
Summary

This study of Israeli war veterans (primarily fathers) examined the role of combat-induced stress reaction (CSR), an acute stress reaction that occurs on the battlefield or immediately after trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), on parenting behaviors and concern for adult children during their child’s military service in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Military service is mandatory for all Israeli citizens over the age of 18.
