The health, distress, and health services utilization of 44 women married to army men was compared to those of 53 women living in the same community. Army wives were found to have less access to health promoting and maintaining resources such as social support, employment, and the "sense of coherence." Although army wives' health is not significantly different from that of the controls, they visit the family physician with their children more often. It is suggested that women who are married to army men learn to cope with instability and with limited access to salutary factors, but the lay referral system is irreplaceable.
将44名军属女性的健康状况、困扰程度及医疗服务利用情况与同社区居住的53名女性进行了比较。结果发现,军属获得社会支持、就业机会和“连贯感”等促进和维持健康资源的机会较少。尽管军属的健康状况与对照组无显著差异,但她们带孩子看家庭医生的频率更高。研究表明,军属女性需要学会应对生活的不稳定以及有益因素获取有限的状况,但非专业转诊系统是不可替代的。
