The purpose of this study was to investigate how prenatal depression, anxiety, and stress were related to bonding and whether these relationships were mediated by birth experience. This prospective cohort study included a diverse sample of 108 pregnant women (38% non‐Hispanic White, 37% Black, 2…
A Comparison of Pragmatic and Scalable Strategies to Assess Fidelity to Cognitive Processing Therapy in Routine Care Settings
Trauma exposure, mental health, and mental health treatment among LGBTQ+ veterans and nonveterans
The study was the first to demonstrate that LGBTQ+ veterans have a greater prevalence of PTEs and other stressors and report worse mental health symptoms. These findings suggest that LGBTQ+ veterans may have unmet mental health treatment needs and need interventions to increase engagement in needed mental health services, especially for depression and anxiety.

Measuring What Matters Most: Considering the Well-Being of the Whole Person in Health Care
Traditionally, the US health care system has focused on improving disease outcomes for individuals and populations. Yet more recently, we have become aware that the absence of disease or disease-state symptoms does not always translate into benefits for individuals’ broader lives. Thus, a shift is occurring where the relevant outcome is the extent to which the health care system improves individuals’ Whole Health, well-being, and functioning in t…
Measuring Patient Well-Being During Whole-Person Clinical Care: Lessons From the Veterans Health Administration Well-Beings Signs Implementation Pilot
BACKGROUND: Measuring patient well-being during clinical care may enhance patient-centered communication and treatment planning. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) piloted the use of the Well-Being Signs (WBS), a self-report measure of psychosocial well-being, in clinical care.

Using Well-Being Measurements to Enhance Clinical Practice: Why and How to Ask Patients About Their Broader Well-Being
In recent years, there has been a growing call for healthcare providers to expand their primary focus beyond treating disease to addressing the needs of the “whole person.”1,2 This shift has been driven in part by growing awareness of the substantial impact that patients’ broader well-being—including the extent to which they are thriving in their everyday roles and activities—has on both health and healthcare outcomes.3 Yet, healthcare providers …

Relationship of perceived neighborhood danger with depression and PTSD among veterans: The moderating role of social support and neighborhood cohesion
Little is known about the impact of perceived neighborhood danger on military veterans' mental health, a population potentially at higher risk for this experience, or whether interpersonal social support and neighborhood cohesion can help buffer against poor mental health. This study examined: (1) the impact of perceived neighborhood danger on depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among veterans; (2) whether interpersonal social sup…
Treatment Utilization for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in a National Sample of Veterans and Nonveterans
OBJECTIVE: The current study sought to compare rates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) treatment utilization (medication and psychotherapy) among veterans and nonveterans-and to investigate which factors are associated with treatment utilization among veterans versus nonveterans. METHODS: Participants were 2775 individuals (veteran, n=2508; nonveteran, n=267) meeting criteria for probable PTSD (determined by the PTSD Checklist) drawn from a…
Development and validation of a brief warfare exposure measure among U.S. Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans: The Deployment Risk and Resilience Inventory-2 Warfare Exposure-Short Form (DRRI-2 WE-SF)
The DRRI-2 WE-SF is a psychometrically sound measure of direct exposures to warfare and its consequences. This measure of proximal warfare exposure retains the strong properties of the full measure while significantly reducing completion time. These properties make the DRRI-2 WE-SF a useful tool for efficiently evaluating proximal warfare exposure among individuals who have served in both combat and noncombat roles. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) …
The transition to civilian life: Impact of comorbid PTSD, chronic pain, and sleep disturbance on veterans’ social functioning and suicidal ideation
Although these findings underscore the impact of PTSD on functioning and SI, they also highlight the complexity of multimorbidity and the importance of bolstering social functioning for veterans. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
The interaction of exposure to adverse childhood and combat experiences on the current mental health of new post‐9/11 veterans
Military veterans have greater exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) than civilians and many also encounter warfare exposures, which can increase the likelihood of mental health problems. The purpose of this study was to test an interaction between childhood traumas and warfare exposures on the mental health of a sample of nearly 10,000 new post‐9/11 veterans. Results revealed that male veterans exposed to one or two ACEs, but no warfa…

Discontinuity of Women Veterans’ Care in Patient-Centered Medical Homes: Does Workforce Gender Sensitivity Matter
Differences in childhood adversity, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempt among veterans and nonveterans
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are robustly associated with physical and mental health problems over the life span. Relatively limited research has examined the breadth of ACEs among military veteran populations, for whom ACEs may be premilitary traumas associated with suicidal ideation and attempt. Using data from the Comparative Health Assessment Interview Research Study, a large national survey sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veteran…
Gender Differences in Lifetime Prevalence and Onset Timing of Suicidal Ideation and Suicide Attempt Among Post-9/11 Veterans and Nonveterans
BACKGROUND: Rising US suicide rates are particularly notable among military veterans, especially women. It is unknown whether these differences extend to suicidal ideation (SI) and suicide attempts (SA), which are major predictors of suicide. Literature comparing SI and SA prevalence and timing of onset between veterans and nonveterans is limited. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to estimate and compare SI and SA prevalence and onset ti…
The impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and combat exposure on mental health conditions among new post-9/11 veterans
This study confirms prior studies demonstrating a relationship between ACEs and combat on subsequent mental health problems. Importantly, 2 different types of combat exposure had differential effects on mental health problems. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
Veterans’ Use of Programs and Services as They Transition to Civilian Life: Baseline Assessment for the Veteran Metrics Initiative
A substantial minority of veterans struggle as they reintegrate into civilian life, reporting problems with vocational attainment, legal/financial/housing challenges, physical and mental health conditions, and social/interpersonal issues. While there are thousands of programs and services offered to veterans, little is known about which ones they use. In the current exploratory study, veterans separated from active duty in the prior three-months …
Gender differences in rates and predictors of individual psychotherapy initiation and completion among Veterans Health Administration users recently diagnosed with PTSD
Overall, while female veterans are more likely than male veterans with PTSD to initiate individual psychotherapy, rates of initiation and completion of individual psychotherapy for both genders remain relatively low. Interventions are needed to increase engagement in individual psychotherapy, particularly for male veterans with PTSD. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
Going It Alone: Post-9/11 Veteran Nonuse of Healthcare and Social Service Programs During Their Early Transition to Civilian Life
