The percentage of military suicides in 2008-2010 by servicemembers who had never deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan, according to a recent article in the journal Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior -- Suicides and Suicide Attempts in the U.S. Military, 2008–2010.
Welcome back for another session of CDP News. Our UC4 program continues to be quite active. The new UC4-e program held a quite successful PE training last Thursday and Friday. Then this week we visited the University of California at Berkeley and today we’re holding another session at the University of Maryland’s College Park campus. This program has been quite well received by both participants and host universities. We’re doing what we can to expand the program to help meet the demand from various counseling centers.
The CDP's weekly research update contains the latest news, journal articles and useful links from around the web. Some of this week's topics include:
• Means and capacity for suicidal behavior: A comparison of the ratio of suicide attempts and deaths by suicide in the US military and general population.
• What are the Contrindications for Prolonged Exposure Therapy for PTSD; A Case Report.
• Prevalence and Characteristics of Military Malingering.
• Group Therapy Among OEF/OIF Veterans: Treatment Barriers and Preferences.
