| Popis: | Although distress in intimate relationships such as marriage is positively associated with psychiatric symptoms and disorders and suicidal ideation in probability samples of the civilian population in the United States, relatively little is known regarding these associations in probability samples of active-duty military personnel. The present study evaluated the association between marital distress and past-30-day prevalence of psychiatric disorders (i.e., mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders) and suicidal ideation in a sample of 8,669 married active-duty soldiers in the U.S. Army who participated in the Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers (Army STARRS). Results indicated that marital distress was significantly and positively associated with past-30-day prevalence of major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and substance use disorder, as well as past-30-day prevalence of suicidal ideation. These associations were incremental to shared associations with demographics and co-occurring psychiatric disorders. The findings support continued research on the association between relationship distress and psychopathology in active-duty service personnel, and suggest the potential utility of adapting existing, evidence-based couple interventions for the prevention and treatment of psychopathology or relationship distress, currently in use in veteran and civilian settings, for use with active-duty military personnel and their partners.
