dc.description.abstract | Most research on veterans focuses on negative outcomes, but little is known about positive outcomes for veterans. The proposed study’s purpose was to examine the relationship of combat history, resilience, and social support to the well-being of a sample of military veterans who have served in Iraq or Afghanistan and who have successfully transitioned into college. A multiple regression examined the data to determine how much unique variance each factor contributed to well-being. It was found that the amount of combat history did not predict well-being. Resilience and social support predicted well-being of college student veterans. | |
