The association between low clinic reach and racial disparity in trauma-focused psychotherapy initiation across the US Veterans Health Administration
Reach of trauma-focused psychotherapies (TFPs) varies across clinics for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the US Veterans Health Administration but it is unknown if access is equitable across patient subgroups. We conducted secondary analysis of program evaluation data to examine the association between clinic reach (low vs. high) and racial equity in TFP initiation over time. We compared the odds of TFP initiation for Black and White pati…
Complementary, Integrative, and Nondrug Therapy Use for Pain Among US Military Veterans on Long-term Opioids
BACKGROUND: Long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain arose amid limited availability and awareness of other pain therapies. Although many complementary and integrative health (CIH) and nondrug therapies are effective for chronic pain, little is known about CIH/nondrug therapy use patterns among people prescribed opioid analgesics. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to estimate patterns and predictors of self-reported CIH/nondrug therapy …
Does need for cognitive closure explain individual differences in lung cancer screening? A brief report
The need for cognitive closure describes the extent to which a person, faced with a decision, prefers any answer in lieu of continued uncertainty. This construct may be relevant in lung cancer screening, which can both reduce and increase uncertainty. We examined whether individual differences in need for cognitive closure are associated with Veterans' completion of lung cancer screening using a self-administered survey ( N = 361). We also assess…

Smoking Cessation Among African American and White Smokers in the Veterans Affairs Health Care System
Objectives. We examined whether a proactive care smoking cessation intervention designed to overcome barriers to treatment would be especially effective at increasing cessation among African Americans receiving care in the Veterans Health Administration. Methods. We analyzed data from a randomized controlled trial, the Veterans Victory over Tobacco study, involving a population-based electronic registry of current smokers (702 African Americans, …

Is Policy Well-Targeted to Remedy Financial Strain among Caregivers of Severely Injured U.S. Service Members
U.S. military service members have sustained severe injuries since the start of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This paper aims to determine the factors associated with financial strain of their caregivers and establish whether recent federal legislation targets caregivers experiencing financial strain. In our national survey, 62.3% of caregivers depleted assets and/or accumulated debt, and 41% of working caregivers left the labor force. If a s…
