Implementation of a fully virtual enterprise-wide clinical evidence-based suicide prevention program in the U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs
SP 2.0 Clinical Telehealth represents the first and only enterprise-wide fully virtual evidence-based treatment program for veterans with a recent history of suicidal self-directed violence. The program's implementation was successful in reaching all VISNs and all VA health care systems in the U.S. The SP 2.0 Clinical Telehealth program can be used as a model for other large health care systems looking to improve provision of evidence-based inter…
Unraveling PTSD
Results suggest that intrusive symptoms may be more resistant to residential treatment for PTSD and contribute to lower likelihood of treatment success. Future work is needed to examine differential treatment response for PTSD clusters, to inform the improvement of current and creation of novel treatment interventions, and to better address intrusive symptoms to maximize PTSD treatment gains.

Physical activity, posttraumatic stress, and gender
Given the importance of physical activity (PA) for both physical and mental health, the present study characterizes post-9/11 veterans' leisure-time PA engagement over time. Further, this study examines the relationship between PA and posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), as well as whether this relation differs by gender and time since military discharge. This study was a secondary analysis of a 12-month longitudinal observational investigation …
An Exploratory Study of Shopping to Relieve Tension or Anxiety in Adolescents
The desire to escape from pressures/anxiety represents an important motivation for problematic engagement with short-term rewarding behaviors that could contribute to the development of recognized and candidate behavioral addictions, including problematic shopping, a prevalent condition among youth in the U.S.A. characterized by excessive shopping cognitions/behaviors that lead to distress/impairment. However, to date, the specific correlates of …

Associations between justice involvement and PTSD and depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempt among post-9/11 veterans
Justice-involved veterans appear to be a vulnerable population experiencing heightened psychiatric symptoms and increased risk for recent suicidal ideation and lifetime suicide attempt. Programs within VHA and the community are important for connecting justice-involved veterans to mental health services and mitigating suicide risk.

A psychosocial mediational model of homelessness among U.S. male and female veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan
Few studies have focused on homelessness among Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom and New Dawn (OEF/OIF/OND) veterans, especially female veterans. An explanatory model of homelessness was constructed and tested for each gender. Data collected in the United States from 833 OEF/OIF/OND veterans (41.5% female; Mage = 35.22, SD = 8.86) who completed the baseline assessment of the Survey of the Experiences of Returning Veterans between Septemb…

Positive and negative religious/spiritual coping and combat exposure as predictors of posttraumatic stress and perceived growth in Iraq and Afghanistan veterans
PTSD symptomatology. These results suggest, among veterans with combat exposure, negative RS coping is associated with higher PTSD symptomatology, while positive RS coping is generally associated with higher PPTG as well as higher PTSD for those with high combat exposure
Working towards an international consensus on criteria for assessing internet gaming disorder
Working towards an international consensus on criteria for assessing internet gaming disorder: a critical commentary on Our collective opinions vary considerably regarding many different aspects of online gaming. However, we contend that the paper by Petry and colleagues does not provide a true and representative international community of researchers in this area. This paper critically discusses and provides commentary on (i) the representativen…
Within-unit relationship quality mediates the association between military sexual trauma and posttraumatic stress symptoms in veterans separating from military service
While the retrospective study design precludes tests of causality, mediational findings provided statistical evidence that lower unit relationship quality partially explains the association between MST and PTSS. This finding is consistent with interpersonal theories of trauma response suggesting that the deleterious effects of MST may be in part due to its erosion of social resources during deployment.

VHA Mental Health Information System
AIM: To describe the design and deployment of health information technology to support implementation of mental health services policy requirements in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). METHODS: Using administrative and self-report survey data, we developed and fielded metrics regarding implementation of the requirements delineated in the VHA Uniform Mental Health Services Handbook. Finalized metrics were incorporated into 2 external facil…
The Use of VA and Non-VA Mental Health Services by Female Veterans
OBJECTIVES: This study compared Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and non-VA mental health service use among male and female veterans. Because female veterans are a distinct minority in VA, it was hypothesized that they would be less likely to use VA mental health care than would male veterans. METHODS: Using data from a national sample of Vietnam and Vietnam-era male (n = 1,612) and female (n = 736) veterans, the following were examined: (1) g…
Long-Term Patterns of Service Use and Cost Among Patients With Both Psychiatric and Substance Abuse Disorders
OBJECTIVES: This is a longitudinal study designed to determine: (1) if patients dually diagnosed with psychiatric and substance abuse disorders incur higher health care costs than other psychiatric patients and (2) if higher costs can be attributed to particular subgroups of the dually diagnosed or types of care. METHODS: Two cohorts of veterans treated in Veterans Affairs mental health programs at the start of fiscal year 1991 were followed for …
Female Veterans' Use of Department of Veterans Affairs Health Care Services
OBJECTIVES: As access of women to mental health services has become increasingly important, empirical research has begun to examine the determinants of mental health care utilization across gender. This article examines the effect of being an extreme minority on utilization of Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health services by female veterans. METHODS: Data were collected on a representative national sample of veterans in 1992 as part of the …
The Effects of Cognitive Impairment on 9-Year Mortality in a Community Sample
Using 9-year mortality data on a community sample of 3,560 adults aged 40 and over, this study assessed the effects of cognitive functioning and one-year declines in cognitive functioning on mortality controlling for comorbid chronic medical illness, physical disability, and psychiatric illness. The study determined the 9-year vital status and, among the decreased, date of death of respondents who were first interviewed in 1980 by the New Haven E…
