Veterans’ Perceived Legitimacy, Moral Injury, and Suicide Ideation

Calling Veterans of OEF and OIF: Requesting your participation in a 5-10 minute anonymous survey.

Hi all, I'm a student at Stanford University conducting a research project on post-9/11 wars veterans' mental health. If you served in Iraq and/or Afghanistan and have 5-10 minutes to spare, I ask that you consider participating in this survey. Please also forward the link to your networks -- all participation is very much appreciated. Individuals 18 years or older who were deployed for Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom are qualified to participate in this brief questionnaire regarding perception of mission legitimacy and self-reporting of any symptoms related to moral injury and suicide ideation.

This project seeks to better understand how U.S. service members are impacted by psychological trauma after a conflict concludes. It is entirely voluntary and responses are anonymous; no compensation will be provided.

The study will be hosted online via SurveyPlanet, which features SSL security. It is entirely anonymous. Participants will respond on the device of their choosing, in the setting of their choosing, thus leaving the matter of privacy to the discretion of the respondent.
