Resilience, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and traumatic brain injury (TBI) are important factors to consider as student military Veterans work to reintegrate into society. The impact of these factors on academic success is not fully understood, but is important for rehabilitation professionals, student advisors, and counselors. The current study examined the impact of resilience, depression, PTSD, and TBI on student Veteran academic outcomes, and whether the amount of student Veterans' military experience moderated the effect of these factors on academic performance. Seventy-seven student Veterans completed measures that assessed resilience, grade point average, academic disruptions, and symptoms of depression, PTSD, and TBI. Path analysis was used to determine the manner in which the variables influenced academic performance. Results indicate that student Veterans should not be viewed as a homogeneous group and their needs differ based on level of military experience. Academic disruption among less experienced Veterans was most associated with symptoms of depression, whereas academic disruption among more experienced Veterans was most associated with symptoms of TBI.

在学生退伍军人努力重新融入社会的过程中，心理韧性、抑郁症、创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）和创伤性脑损伤（TBI）是需要考虑的重要因素。这些因素对学业成功的影响尚未完全明了，但对康复专业人员、学生顾问和辅导员而言却很重要。当前的研究考察了心理韧性、抑郁症、PTSD和TBI对学生退伍军人学业成绩的影响，以及学生退伍军人的军事经历时长是否会调节这些因素对学业表现的影响。77名学生退伍军人完成了评估心理韧性、平均绩点、学业中断情况以及抑郁症、PTSD和TBI症状的测评。路径分析用于确定这些变量影响学业表现的方式。结果表明，不应将学生退伍军人视为一个同质化群体，他们的需求因军事经历水平而异。经验较少的退伍军人的学业中断情况与抑郁症症状关联最大，而经验较丰富的退伍军人的学业中断情况与TBI症状关联最大。[《心理社会护理与心理健康服务杂志》，57(2)，35 - 43。]
