Validating military culture: The factor analysis of a military-related adaptation of acculturation in veterans.
Abstract
< .001, TLI = .73. An evaluation of localized areas of strain in the confirmatory model and results from an exploratory factor analysis suggest support for the continued development of a military-related model of acculturation after considering further measure restructuring and validation. Opportunities for future research and measure validation are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).

“Drastic lifestyle changes and cultural contrasts between military culture and civilian culture are difficult for many veterans to navigate (Edwards, Goldsmith, et al., 2022) and require sometimes rapid acculturation to civilian norms (Joseph et al., 2022; Tkachuck et al., 2022).”

“It is widely accepted that the military identity is a social identity which is formed as the civilian identity becomes less salient through military acculturation (Tkachuck et al., 2022) and is further integrated into the self-concept (Dolan et al., 2022; Flack & Kite, 2021; Moeck et al., 2022).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
