Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* education about PTSD
* a self-assessment tool measuring life stress
* self-management skills to address acute distress and stress
* direct connection to support and
* information about VA and community resources for family members of individuals with PTSD
From this research, the investigators wish to learn whether family members of someone with PTSD find the PTSD Family Coach to be satisfactory and feasible to use. The investigators would also like to know if use of the app increases family members' knowledge of PTSD, and its treatment, and their ability to manage their own life stress, which may in part be the result of living with a Veteran with PTSD.
Currently, there are very few resources for family members of Veterans with PTSD. If this research demonstrates that PTSD Family Coach is a promising tool for family members, it has the potential to address a tremendous unmet need using a very cost-effective, scalable solution.
