Use of family readiness programs (FRPs) by military families is not well understood. This work uses the Gelberg-Andersen Behavioral Model to identify characteristics of Reserve and National Guard (R/NG) couples who access FRPs. Data are from Operation: SAFETY, a study of R/NG soldiers and partners. Logistic regression models examined odds of accessing FRPs based on predisposing, enabling, and need factors. Greater length of military service, greater presence of non-military social ties, and civilian partner reports of adequate support during deployment were associated with higher likelihood of accessing FRPs. Results provide information on FRP utilization and may help inform outreach efforts.
军属对家庭准备计划(FRPs)的使用情况尚未得到充分了解。这项研究运用格尔伯格 - 安德森行为模型来确定使用家庭准备计划的后备役和国民警卫队(R/NG)夫妇的特征。数据来自“安全行动”,这是一项针对后备役和国民警卫队士兵及其配偶的研究。逻辑回归模型基于易患因素、促成因素和需求因素,研究了使用家庭准备计划的几率。服役时间更长、非军事社交关系更多,以及文职配偶报告在部署期间获得了足够的支持,这些因素都与使用家庭准备计划的较高可能性相关。研究结果提供了有关家庭准备计划使用情况的信息,可能有助于指导宣传工作。
