Multimodal Retrospective and Prospective Unit-Level Analysis of Military Workplace Violence

Abstract

Work focused on four major activities during the first study year. First, IRB and human subjects approval were obtained from the NHRC, RTI, and USAMRMC. Second, an exhaustive literature review was conducted resulting in the identification and subsequent acquisition of more than three thousand journal articles relevant to the socio-ecological framework for the study of the factors correlated with violence perpetration by active duty and reserve service members; work began to draft a journal manuscript summarizing the current state of knowledge and describing our framework. Second, construction of the retrospective data base was begun. CHAMPS data for approximately 1.9 million soldiers and marines who were on active duty between 2000 and 2012 were acquired for the study by NHRC and cleaning and processing of these data began. In addition, requests and supporting materials were submitted to obtain other administrative data for the study, including the Defense Incidence Based Reporting System crime data and the PDHA and PDHRA data. We expect to receive these data early in year 2 of the study. Third, work began on the instrument for the prospective survey and a draft has been completed. Fourth, outreach to the six military installations proposed the prospective study was initiated.
