Posttraumatic Stress, Family Adjustment, and Treatment Preferences Among National Guard Soldiers Deployed to OEF/OIF

Self-reported data were used to assess posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, relationship and parenting concerns, and treatment preferences among National Guard members who were recently redeployed from Iraq or Afghanistan. Many of the Guard members screened positive for PTSD, which negatively influenced relationship satisfaction. Guard members also preferred family-based treatment to individual treatment.
