Enhancing resiliency and optimizing readiness in military personnel through psychological flexibility training
This study will evaluate the efficacy of a two-day training program based on ACT for fostering psychological flexibility, the central target in ACT, for enhancing resiliency, and for preventing the development of psychological health symptoms. The research participants will be a non-clinical population of active duty military personnel ( N = 600). The ACT-based training program ( n = 300) will be compared to a military resiliency training as usua…
Keeping the Flame Alive
There is a common belief, but little empirical evidence, that firefighters are uniquely vulnerable to divorce. The present study aimed to examine key demographic and occupational factors related to divorce among firefighters. Online survey data (relationship status, relationship history, demographics, and occupational history) were collected from 163 firefighters in an urban city of the Southern United States. Divorced firefighters were older, in…
A prospective study of firefighters’ PTSD and depression symptoms
Objective: Firefighters are an important sample of convenience to study traumatic exposure and symptom development. This study assessed trauma exposure inside and outside of fire service, diagnosed posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and associated disorders using clinical interviews and self-report measures, then tested the hypothesis that trauma exposure would predict distress in firefighters over the first 3 years in service. Method: In total…
Experiential avoidance as a mediator of the association between posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms and social support
Experiential avoidance may be an important target for treatment to improve long-term functional recovery and reintegration. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
Psychological inflexibility predicts PTSD symptom severity in war veterans after accounting for established PTSD risk factors and personality
Findings indicate a key unique association between psychological inflexibility and PTSD symptom severity over time that is not attributable to overlap with personality or PTSD avoidance symptoms. Additional research on psychological inflexibility in the development and maintenance of PTSD is warranted, as well as whether increasing psychological flexibility leads to reductions in PTSD symptoms and improved psychosocial functioning.

Mechanisms of Moral Injury Following Military Sexual Trauma and Combat in Post-9/11 U.S. War Veterans
Objective: Moral injury may result from perpetration-based and betrayal-based acts that violate deeply held norms; however, researchers and clinicians have little guidance about the moral injury syndrome's specific developmental pathways following morally injurious events. The present study's objective was to examine the direct and indirect pathways proposed in a frequently cited model of moral injury (1) in relation to two types of military-rela…
Pre-deployment trait anxiety, anxiety sensitivity and experiential avoidance predict war-zone stress-evoked psychopathology
Acceptance and commitment therapy for co-occurring PTSD and substance use
Acceptance and Action Questionnaire—II scores as a predictor of posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms among war veterans
Although much is known regarding predictors of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), little of this knowledge directly informs treatment. This study examined whether higher scores on the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire—II (AAQ–II), a self-report measure that purportedly assesses experiential avoidance and psychological inflexibility, accounted for unique variance in PTSD symptoms compared with personality factors and other established predict…
