Abstract

This study examined the direct and indirect associations among moral foundations, PMIEs, and PTSD symptoms. Participants were 203 military veterans (M age = 35.08, 77.30% male) who completed an online survey. Only the binding moral foundation was found to be significantly and positively associated with both PMIEs and PTSD symptoms. Further, the association between the binding foundation and PTSD symptoms was explained by PMIEs. These findings suggest that certain moral foundations, particularly those that serve "binding" functions-loyalty, authority, and purity-may be important considerations in military mental health.
