Effect of Short-Term Separation on the Behavioral Health of Military Wives

Military spouses are separated from one another for a variety of reasons, including deployment and residential training. This study investigated the effect of short-term separations on military wives’ well-being as well as the ways in which other factors are associated with well-being. Findings suggest no effect of separation for training on wives’ well-being; yet other constructs were associated with wives’ well-being.
