Abstract
Using a cross-sectional design, this study surveyed 144 students on campus who areservice members and veterans to determine whether posttraumatic stress (PTS)symptoms are significantly correlated with demographic factors (e.g., age, race andmarital status), risk factors (e.g., military branch and combat exposure), and resources(e.g., social support and religiosity). The results confirm previous findings on correlatesof PTS symptoms, provide new information about service members on campus that areat a greater risk for PTS and highlight resources that are associated with reduced PTSsymptoms. These findings not only give institutions of higher learning insight intoidentifying specific demographics that are at a greater risk for PTS symptoms oncollege campuses, but also point to ways of supporting student servicemembers/veterans by accurately targeting existing resources to the most affectedpopulations.
