Most research on military service focuses on its short-term negative consequences, especially the mental and physical injuries of those deployed in warzones. However, studies of long-term outcomes reveal surprisingly positive effects of military service—both those early in adulthood that grow over time and others that can emerge later in life....

Purpose of the Study: We tested a life-span model of combat exposure on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in later life, examining the direct and indirect effects of prewar, warzone, and postwar factors.
Design and Methods: The sample included 947 male World War II and Korean War veterans from the...
The literature on religiousness, spirituality (R/S), and health has increased dramatically in
the past decade, but suffers from a lack of integrative theoretical models and well-defined
constructs. Drawing on self-regulation theory, we hypothesized that the effects of religiousness
(e.g., affiliation, service attendance) on health affects behavioral self-regulation of health habits;...
We examined whether longitudinal patterns of hassles and uplifts trajectories predicted mortality, using a sample of 1315 men from the VA Normative Aging Study (mean age = 65.31, SD = 7.6). In prior work, we identified different trajectory classes of hassles and uplifts exposure and intensity scores over a period...
