Abstract

Trauma among military personnel is an ongoing concern. Some estimate that up to 23% of post-9/11 service members have posttraumatic stress disorder (Meyer et al., 2019). Even when service personnel do not meet full criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), they often have trauma symptoms and comorbid depression, anxiety, or substance abuse. In response to the needs of military personnel, we are pleased to present a special issue with recent research on trauma in the military. The articles in this special issue represent four areas of emerging research on this population: beliefs, cognitions, and moral injury; relationships and coping; symptoms and comorbidity; and recovery.
