| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to assess how post-9/11 university student veterans differ from nonveteran university students on four mental health indicators. In comparison to a demographically matched sample of nonveteran students, we found that veterans in our study had significantly higher levels of depression and post-traumatic stress symptomatology and non-significantly lower levels of engagement in meaningful activities and meaning in life. Our non-experimental study indicates mental health differences between student veterans and their nonveteran peers do exist and argues for the inclusion of occupational therapy services for student veterans. | |
