Global views on military stress and resilience / edited by Allister MacIntyre, Daniel Lagacé-Roy and Douglas R. Lindsay.: D2-527/2017E-PDF

“While the existence of stressors in everyday life are readily accepted, military members must deal with stressful situations that are, to say the least, out of the ordinary. With this reality in mind, resilience is a particularly relevant contributor to operational success and the mental well-being of soldiers, sailors, and air personnel following deployments. In this inaugural International Military Testing Association (IMTA) volume, 27 scholars from seven different countries explore the concepts of stress and discuss how to improve resiliency in military members to better cope with demanding and stressful circumstances”--Foreward, p. v.
