Military life presents a variety of challenges to military families, including frequent separations and relocations as well as the risks that service members face during deployment; however, many families successfully navigate these challenges. Despite a recent emphasis on family resilience, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) does not have a standard and universally accepted definition of family resilience. A standard definition is a necessary for DoD to more effectively assess its efforts to sustain and improve family resilience. RAND authors reviewed the literature on family resilience and, in this study, recommend a definition that could be used DoD-wide. The authors also reviewed DoD policies related to family resilience, reviewed models that describe family resilience and identified key family resilience factors, and developed several recommendations for how family-resilience programs and policies could be managed across DoD.
军事生活给军人家庭带来了各种各样的挑战，包括频繁的分离和搬迁，以及军人在部署期间面临的风险；然而，许多家庭成功地应对了这些挑战。尽管最近人们强调家庭复原力，但美国国防部（DoD）并没有一个标准的、被普遍接受的家庭复原力定义。一个标准定义对于国防部更有效地评估其维持和改善家庭复原力的努力是必要的。兰德公司的作者回顾了关于家庭复原力的文献，并在本研究中推荐了一个可在国防部范围内使用的定义。作者还审查了与家庭复原力相关的国防部政策，回顾了描述家庭复原力的模型并确定了关键的家庭复原力因素，并就如何在国防部范围内管理家庭复原力计划和政策提出了若干建议。
