“…Finally, the present study extends cross-sectional data linking problematic anger with economic distress. 4 Problematic anger appears to place individuals at risk for subsequent financial uncertainty and unemployment, although these associations may be accounted for in part by T1 financial stress and timing and type of separation. Results also demonstrated a link with homelessness, although these findings did not reach significance after adjusting for T1 behavioral health.…”

“…Major financial problems were assessed with 1 item. 4 Financial security was assessed with 1 item asking about the “financial condition of you and your family,” categorized into 4 levels. Homelessness was assessed with 1 item asking if participants had slept in a shelter, on streets, or in other nonresidential settings because of having no other place to stay.…”

“… 1 Problematic anger has the potential to impede adjustment across different domains including behavioral health, 2 , 3 social relationships, 1 and economic functioning. 4 More broadly, a recent study found problematic anger was associated with suicidal ideation and suicide attempts, after accounting for psychiatric risk factors. 5 At present, however, problematic anger remains largely understudied, unrecognized, and undertreated.…”

“…At least one cross-sectional study demonstrated a link between problematic anger and economic distress (eg, financial strain, unemployment, homelessness), over and above demographics, military characteristics, and mental health. 4 Given the study design, however, the degree to which problematic anger is a response or a contributor to difficult circumstances, or some combination of the two is unclear. 4 Clarifying the temporal sequence of this association is critical to identifying periods of risk and opportunities for intervention.…”

Although disparities in mental health occur within racially, ethnically, and gender-diverse civilian populations, it is unclear whether these disparities persist within U.S. military populations. Using cross-sectional data from the Millennium Cohort Study (2014-16, n=103,184, 70.3% men, 75.7% non-Hispanic White), a series of logistic regression models were conducted to examine whether racial, ethnic, and/or sex disparities were found in mental health outcomes (posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], depression, anxiety, problematic anger), hierarchically adjusting for sociodemographic, military, health-related, and social support factors. Compared with non-Hispanic White individuals, those who identified as American Indian or Alaska Native, non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic/Latino or Multiracial showed greater risk of PTSD, depression, anxiety, and problematic anger in unadjusted models. Racial and ethnic disparities in mental health were partially explained by health-related and social support factors. Women showed greater risk of depression and anxiety and lower risk of PTSD than men. Evidence of intersectionality emerged for problematic anger for Hispanic/Latino and Asian or Pacific Islander women. Overall, racial, ethnic, and sex disparities in mental health persisted among service members and veterans. Future research and interventions are recommended to reduce these disparities and improve the health and well-being in diverse service members and veterans.

A notable proportion of criminal legal system (CLS)-involved combat veterans have a history of homelessness. However, knowledge regarding the relationship between homelessness and CLS involvement among combat veterans is largely based on descriptive studies, and potential mechanisms linking homelessness to CLS involvement are largely unknown. Using data from the 2019-2020 National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study ( n = 1,353), this study examined the association between homelessness and contact with CLS among U.S. combat veterans and evaluated the mediating roles of shared risk factors. Findings revealed that a large proportion (53.6%) of the association between homelessness and CLS involvement was accounted for by indirect associations, most notably via drug use disorder (22.1%), moral injury (11.4%), and alcohol use disorder (10.7%). These findings highlight modifiable mechanisms that may link homelessness to CLS involvement, which may help inform targeted prevention efforts to mitigate the risk for CLS involvement among combat veterans.
