Does the public value ecosystem services secured by pine savanna restoration and bobwhite management on private lands
Private land stewardship in the southeastern United States is crucial to attain pine savanna restoration and conservation of the threatened northern bobwhite ( Colinus virginianus ). Both government and privately funded conservation efforts secure numerous ecosystem services, including groundwater recharge, scenic open spaces, and biodiversity. Yet, we have incomplete information on whether the public values these ecosystem services. From June 15…
The Willingness of Military Members to Seek Help: The Role of Social Involvement and Social Responsibility
Anchored in the social organization theory of action and change, we use data from a large sample of active‐duty Air Force members to examine the direct and indirect influence of social involvement and social responsibility on willingness to seek help in times of need via trust in formal systems and informal supports. Group comparisons are conducted between junior male, junior female, senior male, and senior female service members. The key mediati…
Mental and Physical Health Status and Alcohol and Drug Use Following Return From Deployment to Iraq or Afghanistan
Objectives. We examined (1) mental and physical health symptoms and functioning in US veterans within 1 year of returning from deployment, and (2) differences by gender, service component (Active, National Guard, other Reserve), service branch (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines), and deployment operation (Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom [OEF/OIF]). Methods. We surveyed a national sample of 596 OEF/OIF veterans, oversampling women …
The Resiliency Model of Role Performance for Service Members, Veterans, and their Families: A Focus on Social Connections and Individual Assets
The Road of Life, a life course metaphor, is used as the backdrop for a theoretically anchored model, The Resiliency Model of Role Performance, which has been developed to account for variation in the ability of service members and their families to meet their role responsibilities in the context of military life and duties. This model incorporates a focus on both individual assets and the social context in which individuals and families are embe…
Civic Engagement and Sense of Community in the Military
In the context of current discussions among social commentators about the status and well being of community in American society, this article examines the nature of civic engagement and sense of community in the U.S. military. Framed by social disorganization theory, a conceptual model is developed and tested with a sample of married active duty Air Force (AF) members. Our analysis examines variations in perceptions of sense of community as a co…
Community Capacity: Antecedents and Consequences
Traditional practice models of family support often lack a community focus. Increasingly, human service professionals who work with families focus their intervention and prevention efforts on the communities in which families live and work. The Family Advocacy Division of the United States Air Force recently revised its program standards to address community issues in an effort to strengthen families through community-based prevention activities.…
Conventional and Military Public Housing for Families
This study provides a brief history of military family housing in the United States. Military family housing is a unique form of public housing. Its development paralleled other forms of public and assisted housing. However, the history of military family housing is largely unknown to social welfare and housing policy historians, and its lessons are not applied to contemporary housing policy. This article examines the social, economic, and politi…
