This study examined whether romantic relationship functioning was associated with mental health treatment utilization in male and female veterans. Veterans (N = 760) enrolled in a longitudinal registry completed self-report measures and a diagnostic interview for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Mental health treatment utilization data procured from Veterans Affairs administrative records were analyzed over 12 months. For men with PTSD, greater romantic relationship dysfunction was associated with more total mental health visits, medication management visits, and group psychotherapy visits. For women with PTSD, romantic relationship dysfunction was negatively associated with total mental health, individual psychotherapy, and group therapy visits. For women without PTSD, greater relationship dysfunction was associated with fewer total mental health visits and group therapy visits. For men, relationship difficulties appear to be positively related to mental health service use; however, for women, relationship difficulties appear to have no relation or a negative relation to mental health service use.

男性和女性 OEF/OIF 退伍军人的心理健康治疗利用和关系功能。

这项研究检查了浪漫关系功能是否与男性和女性退伍军人的心理健康治疗利用相关。参加纵向登记的退伍军人 (N = 760) 完成了自我报告措施和创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 的诊断访谈。从退伍军人事务部行政记录中获取的心理健康治疗使用数据在 12 个月内进行了分析。对于患有创伤后应激障碍的男性，更大的浪漫关系功能障碍与更多的心理健康访问、药物管理访问和团体心理治疗访问有关。对于患有 PTSD 的女性，浪漫关系功能障碍与总体心理健康、个人心理治疗和团体治疗访问呈负相关。对于没有 PTSD 的女性，更大的关系功能障碍与较少的总心理健康访问和团体治疗访问有关。对于男性来说，人际关系困难似乎与心理健康服务的使用呈正相关；然而，对于女性来说，人际关系困难似乎与心理健康服务的使用没有关系或负相关。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA，保留所有权利）。
