文化提供了不成文的规则，告知和塑造预期的行为。到目前为止，很少有研究已经进行了服务人员对心理健康问题的态度或意见。本文探讨了目前的文献和研究认识到心理健康问题的军事和潜在的组织障碍，包括耻辱和军事文化的具体特点，如对好友的支持显着的依赖。我们的结论是，在军事和平民人口中运作的护理障碍并非微不足道。事实上，西方军队目前面临着一场艰苦的斗争，以打击存在的实质性障碍。
Culture provides the unwritten rules that inform and shape expected behaviors. To date, little research has been conducted into the attitudes or opinions that service personnel hold toward mental health issues. This article examines current literature and research into the recognition of mental health problems in the military and potential organizational barriers to care including stigma and the specific characteristics of a military culture such as the significant reliance on buddy support. We conclude that the barriers to care which operate in both military and civilian populations are not insignificant. Western' militaries in fact currently face an uphill struggle to combat the substantial barriers to care that exist.
