Measurement-Based Transition Assistance (MBTA): Evaluating the Promise of a Web-Based Approach to Promote Veterans' Support Seeking
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Measurement-Based Transition Assistance (MBTA) for Well-being. Completed, enrolled 46 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Although some Veterans seek help when they experience post-military readjustment challenges, many do not. One factor that stands in the way of Veterans' willingness to seek help for these challenges is their lack of knowledge, both with regard to how severe challenges must be to warrant help-seeking and what resources are available to address these challenges. Measurement-Based Transition Assistance (MBTA) aims to address these barriers to help-seeking by providing Veterans with individualized feedback on areas in which they would benefit from additional support with regard to their health, vocational, financial, and social circumstances, along with personalized recommendations for relevant programs, services, and supports. If effective, this scalable, population-based intervention strategy could be used independently or in conjunction with other approaches to enhancing Veterans' help-seeking to interrupt high-risk trajectories before they lead to chronic maladjustment and increased risk for suicide.
