Adjustment Disorder Study
BLUF: Recruiting military healthcare providers to participate in a one-time questionnaire as part of a CDMRP-funded study on Adjustment Disorders in the military.
Adjustment Disorders (ADs) are the most common mental health diagnosis in the military population and have a substantial impact on our troops’ readiness. However, there remains substantial variation in how troops with adjustment disorders are identified and diagnosed. Our research has developed a military-specific diagnostic tool (ADNM-20-Mil) for provider use with diagnosing ADs in service members.
As part of this study, we are asking health care providers to assess their intentions to use the ADNM-20-Mil as part of their tool kit for diagnosing ADs. As a military healthcare provider, your input on our questionnaire is an important part of this study. We hope you will consider participating. If you are interested in learning more about our study, or participating, please click the link to our secured website here, or copy and paste the following link: https://nursing.usuhs.edu/adj-study. We also ask that you share this email with your colleagues as a way to disseminate study recruitment.
