Reentry: II. "Making It" Back in the States
Abstract
The author defines the differential characteristics, adjustment stresses, and coping methods of three groups of successful and unsuccessful Viet Nam veterans attempting to "make it" back in the States. His findings suggest the need for preventive intervention programs to facilitate the successful readjustment of these veterans. Such programs should focus on decreasing unnecessary stresses in the readjustment process, better preparing returnees for adjustment issues, and increasing the variety of coping methods available to them.
