| Sleep quality worse during or post-deployment compared to pre-deployment | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Spring 2011 |
|
Service members who were currently deployed or had returned from a deployment had significantly shorter adjusted sleep duration and increased adjusted odds of reporting trouble sleeping compared to those who had not deployed. Article is on page 4 of the Spring 2011 issue.

| Pre-existing psychiatric disorders predict post-deployment PTSD regardless of physical injury severity | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Summer 2011 |
|
Service members with one or more mental health disorders prior to deployment were two- and-a-half times more likely to screen positive for PTSD post-deployment compared to those with no mental health disorders, after controlling for pre-deployment PTSD, physical injury severity and a host of other risk factors. Article is on page 2 of the Summer 2011 issue.

| Increased physical activity levels linked to reduced PTSD symptoms | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Summer 2011 |
|
Participants who engaged in less physical activity were more likely to screen positive for PTSD. Those who reported at least 20 minutes of vigorous activity twice a week had significantly reduced odds for new-onset and persistent PTSD symptoms. Article is on page 4 of the Summer 2011 issue.

| Individual augmentees do not report increased mental health symptoms. | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Summer 2012 |
|

| PTSD symptom trajectories among deployed U.S. military personnel. | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Summer 2012 |
|
Analysis of U.S. service members who had deployed either once or multiple times revealed that both groups shared very similar PTSD trajectories over time, with the vast majority (83% single deployers, 85% multiple deployers) displaying a low-stable (resilient) symptom pattern that lasted from pre-deployment to several years post-deployment. The other PTSD symptom trajectory patterns included moderate-improving (8%, 8.5%), worsening-chronic (6.7%, 4.5%), high-stable (2.2% single deployers only) and high-improving (2.2% multiple deployers only).

| New-onset PTSD/depression risk in deployed healthcare professionals | Combat and Operational Stress Research Quarterly | Summer 2013 |
|
Military healthcare professionals have similar rates of new-onset PTSD or depression compared to those in other military occupations. Similar to other types of military personnel, combat exposure was the key factor that increased the rates of new-onset PTSD/depression in this sample, as deployed healthcare professionals with combat exposure had twice the odds of new-onset PTSD/depression compared to those deployed without combat exposure.
