Research has shown a clear association between war‐zone exposure and psychological readjustment in soldiers. Newer findings suggest that certain event and person characteristics are especially influential in this process. The present article has the following goals: (a) to review existing parameters in the traditional measurement of war‐zone exposure, (b) to consider conceptual and methodological limitations in these approaches, (c) to present empirical data from a cohort of Persian Gulf War veterans that support the utility of a broader conceptualization of war trauma, and (d) to examine how gender may be differentially associated with some dimensions of war‐zone stress and psychological outcome following deployment. Data suggest that identifying diverse dimensions of war‐zone stress may enhance efforts to understand veterans' initial and long‐range wartime recovery
