A study to examine the relationship between self-regulatory resource management strategies and academic achievement in student veterans with PTSD symptomsKehl, Valerie A. 11 November 2015 (has links)
<p> This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the use of self-regulatory resource management strategies and academic achievement in student veterans with PTSD symptoms. There have been several studies conducted pertaining to the transitional issues veterans face while enrolling in education and self-reports of veteran’s perceived support from faculty and the adequacy of campus resources. There have not been any studies performed to evaluate why some veteran students excel in post secondary education while others fail to succeed. </p><p> Twenty-five veterans were recruited through email to participate in a three-part questionnaire survey. In veterans students it can be concluded that there is a correlation between individual questions related to GPA and the Resource Management Strategies, combat experiences and PTSD symptoms, number of deployments and PTSD symptoms, combat experience, number of deployments, and PTSD symptoms. However, there is no significant correlation between the average of the Resource Management Strategies and GPA.</p>

Mental health in the military and the role of occupational therapy in improving quality of life and occupational performanceMaknati, Aileen 26 September 2020 (has links)
Mental health in the military continues to be an epidemic and results in mental health issues, social isolation, deprivation, and alienation from roles and occupations. The social stigmas military personnel experience is linked to significant barriers to acquiring the necessary help for military personnel. The common concerns regarding seeking help for military personnel were being perceived as weak, being treated differently by unit leadership, personal perception of stigma, lack of education and members having less confidence in the individual (Gould, Greenberg, & Hetherton, 2007). The lack of preventative care for military personnel and barriers to seeking help, has resulted in decreased occupational performance and decreased quality of life for military personnel. Therefore, the implementation of preventative and early intervention techniques using occupational therapy approaches aims to address mental illness in the military and improve overall quality of life using effective intervention methods. This dissertation aims to identify gaps in practice, assess problem areas, and effectively demonstrates the role of occupational therapy in improving mental illness in the military.
