Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Indicators of Psychological Health and Suicidal Ideation Within an Active Duty U.S. Military Population

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the psychological health of individuals. The pandemic has contributed to increased anxiety, elevated rates of depression, and worsening suicidal ideation among civilians. Reported rates of burnout are also elevated as employees and employers adapted to ever-changing work environments, finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a work-life balance. The objective of this study is to determine how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the psychological health and rates of suicidal ideation of active duty military personnel in the USA.
