Wartime deployment involves prolonged separation and creates uncertainty, fear, and disorganization in families (M. J. Peebles-Kleiger & J. H. Kleiger, 1994). This study examined how military wives/fiancées reported coping with the demands they associated with spousal deployment.
Interviews with female spouses or fianceés of deployed male Service members were conducted to examine relational coping during spousal deployment.

Our objective is to determine the prevalence of recurrent headaches in military-dependent children and to study the changes in headache frequency, severity, and duration during a parental deployment. Recurrent headaches are common in children and are often intensified by stressful life events.
Child and adolescent somatic complaints (physical symptoms that usually result from stress or emotional distress) are understudied in the parental deployment context.
