This paper evaluates Passport Toward Success (PTS).

Children and adolescents of National Guard members who recently returned from deployment participated in the Passport Towards Success (PTS) program, which teaches youth strategies for effective coping, problem-solving, and emotional expression.

The association of service members' combat-related PTSD with partners' distress is weaker when spouses/partners believe that service members experienced more traumatic events during deployment.

Civilian wives married to U.S. Army Active Duty husbands completed questionnaires to explore the impact of attributions of their spouses' posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and combat exposure on marital satisfaction.

The present study seeks to model the effects of parenting stress on contentment experienced by spouses of soldiers deployed to Iraq for long periods of time (n = 200).

Associations between length of deployment, parenting stress, family coping, and sense of coherence on contentment among Army spouses of deployed Service members were explored. Coherence was defined as perception of comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness in daily life.

The association between parental military work factors and adolescent's well-being was examined. Data were collected from 1036 military youth.

Adolescents who had at least one Active Duty military parent participated in a study examining the associations among demographic information, military- related factors, and well-being.
