“…For example, both partners experience better emotional and physical health, are more successful in their jobs, and seem to be protected from other sources of stress when they are satisfied with their marriages, compared with when they are not (e.g., Kiecolt-Glaser and Newton, 2001;Stack and Eshleman, 1998;Waltz et al, 1988). Marital distress, however, is associated with lower rates of productivity, higher risks of emotional and physical illness in partners, and poorer rates of recovery from illness (e.g., Forthofer et al, 1996;Kiecolt-Glaser et al, 2005).…”

This product is part of the RAND Corporation monograph series.RAND monographs present major research findings that address the challenges facing the public and private sectors. All RAND monographs undergo rigorous peer review to ensure high standards for research quality and objectivity. The research described in this report was prepared for the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD). The research was conducted in the RAND National Defense Research Institute, a federally funded research and development center sponsored by the OSD, the Joint Staff, the Unified Combatant Commands, the Department of the Navy, the Marine Corps, the defense agencies, and the defense Intelligence Community under Contract DASW01-01-C-0004. Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication DataKarney, Benjamin R. PrefaceSince the onset of the military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the demands on the military have been higher than they have been at any time since the Vietnam War. In particular, deployments, especially for the Army and the Marine Corps, have been longer, more frequent, and more dangerous than they have been in the past. In the summer and fall of 2005, briefings delivered to Dr. David Chu, Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, raised concerns that these lengthy separations were leading to rising divorce rates among military families. Those concerns, in turn, raised broader questions about the effects of military service on military marriages and about the most effective ways of addressing the needs of military families. The overarching goal of the research and analyses described in this monograph is to provide an empirical and theoretical foundation for discussions of these issues. In pursuit of this goal, we ask three questions. First, what has the accumulated research and theory on military marriages contributed to an understanding of how and why military marriages succeed or fail? To address this question, we reviewed the existing theoretical and empirical literature on military marriage, identifying the strengths and limitations of this literature for understanding the effects of deployment on marriages in the current environment. Second, how have rates of transition into and out of marriag...

“…Каждый следующий брак с еще большей вероятностью так закончится [Brody, Neubaum, Forehand, 1988;Cherlin, 1992]. Благополучные браки обычно оберегают супругов от негативных жизненных ситуаций и стрессов [Waltz, Badura, Pfaff, Schott, 1988], но стресс и нестабильность в браке обладают негативными последствиями для физиологического и эмоционального здоровья супругов [Bloom, Asher, White, 1978] и их детей [Emery, 1982;Grych, Fincham, 1990], а также являются одними из основных причин обращения за консультацией к пси-хологу [Veroff, Kulka, Douvan, 1981] 1 .…”

“…A number of longitudinal studies has investigated the well-being of samples of patients and disabled people in relation to their socioeconomic circumstances (e.g. : Waltz, Badura, Pfaff, & Schott, 1988), but these studies lack control groups and are hard to generalize to the general population. Most previous research that looked into possible moderators focused on the elderly (e.g.…”

Does education buffer the impact of disability on psychological distress?

a b s t r a c tThis paper investigates whether education buffers the impact of physical disability on psychological distress. It further investigates what makes education helpful, by examining whether cognitive ability and occupational class can explain the buffering effect of education. Two waves of the 1958 British National Child Development Study are used to test the hypothesis that the onset of a physical disability in early adulthood (age 23 to 33) has a smaller effect on psychological distress among higher educated people. In total 423 respondents (4.6%) experienced the onset of a physical disability between the ages of 23 and 33. We find that a higher educational level cushions the psychology impact of disability. Cognitive ability and occupational class protect against the effect of a disability too. The education buffer arises in part because individuals with a higher level of education have more cognitive abilities, but the better social position of those with higher levels of education appears to be of greater importance. Implications of these findings for the social gradient in health are discussed.
