BACKGROUND: Military deployment of one or both parents is associated with declines in school performance, behavioral difficulties, and increases in reported mental health conditions, but less is known regarding injury risks in pediatric military dependents.
In this epidemiological study, researchers examined injury in infants, children, and adolescents of military and nonmilitary parents. Injury-related hospital admissions were approximately 20% higher among military youth than their civilian counterparts.
In this cross-sectional study we examine antecedents of the job search self-efficacy (JSSE) of 6,411 spouses of enlisted military personnel.
The influence of employment status, family characteristics, child care conflict, and employment assistance programs on job search self-efficacy was examined in spouses of enlisted military personnel. Annual income and financial situation positively influenced job search self-efficacy.
