Description
Suicide rates have increased from veterans and non-white racial subgroups, but limited research looks at mental health differences in the military community by race. Between 2014 and 2015 in a southern military training center, 794 military personnel answered mental health measures. Guided by the Interpersonal Psychological Theory of Suicide, this secondary data analysis considered the moderating effect of Race on Thwarted Belongingness and Perceived Burdensomeness and their respective relationships with Suicidal Ideation. Perceived Burdensomeness was predicted to have the strongest relationship with Suicidal Ideation and that Race would moderate the respective relationships between Suicidal Ideation and Perceived Burdensomeness/Thwarted Belongingness.
