Abstract

Department of Defense (DoD) surveys were examined to develop a demographic profile of military families affected by divorce and remarriage.

This qualitative study was aimed at developing theory about the process underlying the development of responsibility grounded in accounts of youth who reported experiencing this change.

Having a partner deployed during wartime may increase a woman’s stress level during pregnancy. By administering surveys to pregnant military spouses and Active Duty Service members, the study examined the relationship between spousal deployment and prenatal stress.

In this study, we examined psychological, demographic, and physical predictors of job satisfaction among military personnel across the Armed Forces. Data were collected from 24,881 members of the Active Duty and Reserve/Guard components.

This study examines relationships between social support and life events stress among 50 single active duty enlisted United States Navy mothers.

Although previous research has examined the role of adult attachment orientations, depressive symptoms, and conflict resolution behaviors (attacking and compromising) in marital quality, these variables have typically been considered separately.

Despite the ubiquitous nature of parent education in autism treatment, relatively few studies directly address how parent education should be conducted.

Spouses of combat veterans with PTSD have greater psychological and marital distress than spouses of veterans without PTSD, however, few studies have examined how variables related to the spouses (e.g., cognitions) may play a role in their own distress.

This study examined the unique and combined effects of child abuse and childrenÕs exposure to domestic violence on later attachment to parents and antisocial behavior during adolescence. Analyses also investigated whether the interaction of exposure and low attachment predicted youth outcomes.

We present the victim rates and severity of child maltreatment in US Army families by the sex of the child and parent from 1990Ð2004. Neglect rates decreased from a high point in 1991 to a low in 2000, but by 2004 the rates had increased to about the 1991 level.
