“…Military stressors include perceived threats and difficult living and working environments (Vogt, Samper, King, King, & Martin, 2008), as well as deployment stressors, lack of social support, and concerns about family disruptions (Vogt, Pless, King, & King, 2005). Many female and male veterans with combat exposure experience PTSD (Feczer & Bjorklund, 2009;Murdoch et al 2003;Vogt, Vaughn et al, 2011;Vogt et al, 2008). Further research demonstrates a high incidence (40%) of MST for females (Campbell & Raja, 2005;Haskell et al, 2010;Sadler, Booth, Mengeling, & Doebbeling 2004), and an association between MST and PTSD (Murdoch, Polusny, Hodges, & Cowper, 2006).…”
