Robertson, Fay A. January 1959 (has links)
Thesis (M.S.)--Boston University / In general terms it is hoped that this study will add in some small measure to the ever growing body of knowledge in the field of personality adjustment and human inter-relationships. Perhaps it will serve to broaden the scope of our general understanding of emotional illness, its relation to marital or family situations, and its effect tpon the significant figures in the patient's life.

The Effects of Mental Illness on Trust Between Military Veterans

Reihl, Kristina Marie 01 January 2014 (has links)
Service members have reported the perception that seeking treatment for, and/or having a mental illness will cause a loss of trust between a service member and his/her leaders and peers (Nash, Silva, and Litz, 2009; Hoge et al, 2004). This study aimed to determine if the presence of a mental illness affects the trust between service members and determine whether other variables moderated this relationship. Using social media and Mechanical Turk an internet participant-recruiting site operated by Amazon, data were collected from 220 military Veterans. Participants were assessed using a research developed Demographics Questionnaire, the Combat Exposure Scale, The Unit Cohesion Scale, and the Trust in Teams Scale. Participants were randomized into three groups. Each of the three groups read a different scenario depicting a service member. Results of this study do not support the existence of a measureable loss in trust with disclosure of a mental illness. A significant increase in predictability and global trust scores was observed when participants read the scenario different scenarios. The results, specifically that trust did not change as a function of a unit member displaying symptoms of mental illness and that treatment for a mental illness, improved trust scores on the facets of global trust and predictability, provide the basis for future research into this area.

The Texas Confederate Home for Men, 1884-1970

Kirchenbauer, Amy Sue 08 1900 (has links)
Founded in 1886 by a local veteran’s organization, the Texas Confederate Home for Men served thousands of veterans throughout its tenure. State-run beginning in 1891, the facility became the center of controversy multiple times, with allegations of mistreatment of residents, misappropriation of funds, and unsanitary conditions in the home. Despite these problems, for several decades the home effectively provided large numbers of needy veterans with a place where they could live out their remaining years. The home was finally closed by the state in 1965, and the buildings were demolished in 1970. The facility’s success helped to inspire Texas to introduce a veteran pension system, and brought forth a new era in the state’s willingness to take care of veterans once their wars were over.

HEALING THROUGH CONNECTION: THERAPEUTIC RIDING AND VETERANS DIAGNOSED WITH POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER

Rushing, Barbara Sue 01 December 2019 (has links) (PDF)
The wars in Afghanistan (OEF) and Iraq (OIF) represent the most sustained American combat operations since the Vietnam War. A wealth of research has shown the frequency and intensity of exposure to combat experiences is positively correlated with risk for chronic PTSD and associated impairments in veterans, a “dose-response” continuum (Fischer, 2014; Hoge, Messer, McGurk, & Koffman, 2004; Maguen et al., 2015; Philips et al., 2017; Pitman, 2006; Ricks, 2004; Rona et al., 2014). Reported prevalence rates for symptoms of PTSD in OEF and OIF veterans vary, but researchers suggest 14% of treatment-seeking veterans and up to 21% of OEF and OIF veterans meet criteria for PTSD (Angkaw et al., 2013). The Department of Veteran Affairs (VA), the Department of Defense (DoD), community agencies, and private mental health providers strive to help veterans reintegrate into civilian life. Efforts have been made to reduce barriers to treatment by developing interventions more appealing to veterans. One such modality gaining traction and support is therapeutic riding (TR). TR teaches veterans about horsemanship, how to ride, and serves as a tool for connection, as well as, physical and emotional healing (Notgrass & Pettinelli, 2015). This study was designed to answer the following research question: How do OEF and OIF veterans diagnosed with symptoms of PTSD experience the use of TR as a tool for their recovery? The post-intentional phenomenology, was utilized to ascertain how four veterans participating in TR were changed by the experience. Intentionality promoted an understanding of TR through its emphasis on the connections made during their participation. Data was gathered using a whole-part-whole investigative approach, whereby, themes were explored separately then brought together as a whole (Vagle, 2014). The research question and sub-questions facilitated further understanding of TR and its utilization by OEF and OIF veterans in the domains of perceived personal change, social connection, mental and emotional wellbeing, and environment. There were eleven tentative manifestations of change and five influencing factors which emerged through data discovery. Constructs were illuminated and further explored. The exploratory research implications seemed to support previous findings, suggesting TR had positive effects on PTSD symptom recovery for OEF and OIF veterans.

An analysis of homeless veterans participating in the homeless veteran reintegration program

Campbell, Katrina Lanelle 07 August 2010 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to conduct an analysis on ex post facto data of the federal grant supported Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program (HVRP) administered at Goodwill Industries of Lower South Carolina. Pre-existing data on variables such as performance goals, training activities, support services, and demographics from program years 2006-2008 were used as data sources for the study. A descriptive statistics method of program analysis was employed and results were used to determine if performance outcomes met initial performance goals. The results from the study revealed that in order to successfully reintegrate into the workforce, HVRP participants required basic employability and entry-level technical skills training, and access to support systems that would allow them to meet the needs of their families while they concentrated on gaining new competencies.
