Military service has profound effects on multiple aspects of health and well-being across the lifespan. Although veterans are selected for good health, and military service confers some positive benefits, it can also have short- and long-term negative consequences. There is an urgent need for an integrative, multidisciplinary approach to understand the dynamic interplay between the risl< and protective aspects of military service across the lifespan. Our objective is to advance a lifespan approach to the study of the long-term effects of military service on later life outcomes (i.e., health, well-being, social and economic circumstances). To accomplish this, we propose four aims: 1. Create a national network of scholars to study the lifespan outcomes of military service. We will build on existing resources at Boston University and VA Boston, and our ongoing collaboration with team members at Oregon State University. With advice from our Advisory Group we will expand our network to include a broader range of members and data resources. 2. Build a web-based information resource to promote access to and integrative uses of national databases. 3. Conduct integrative research using data described in this resource, developing and testing a lifespan model of the long-term outcomes of military service, using state-of-the-art statistical methods for the analysis of longitudinal data 4. Promote new research adopting a lifespan perspective, by means of workshops, virtual conferencing, and a national conference on Aging and Military Service. As part of our on-going activities, we will disseminate via a public-access website the information resources we develop; present and publish our findings; and develop the next generation of scholars addressing the lifespan implications of military service on health and well-being. RELEVANCE (See instructions): Veterans constitute a sizable proportion of the aging population; understanding the impact of their military experiences, especially deployment to combat, will enhance our knowledge of their long-term effects on health and well-being in aging. While this knowledge is useful for understanding the current cohort of aging veterans, it will also be useful in planning for the "new" veterans of OIF/OEF as they age over the coming years.

兵役对整个生命周期的健康和福祉的多个方面具有深远的影响。 尽管为了身体健康而被选中退伍军人，而兵役也赋予了一些积极的好处，但它可以 也有短期和长期的负面后果。迫切需要综合性， 多学科的方法来了解Risl <和保护性方面的动态相互作用 整个生命周期的兵役。 我们的目标是提高寿命方法来研究兵役的长期影响 以后的生活结果（即健康，福祉，社会和经济环境）。为此，我们 提出四个目标： 1。建立一个国家学者网络，以研究兵役的寿命结果。我们将建造 关于波士顿大学和弗吉尼亚州波士顿的现有资源，以及我们与团队的持续合作 俄勒冈州立大学的成员。在我们的咨询小组的建议下，我们将扩展我们的网络 包括更广泛的成员和数据资源。 2。建立基于网络的信息资源，以促进对国家的访问和综合用途 数据库。 3.使用此资源中描述的数据进行整合研究，开发和测试寿命 兵役长期成果的模型，使用最先进的统计方法 纵向数据的分析 4。通过研讨会，虚拟会议，促进新的研究，采用寿命的观点 以及全国性衰老和兵役会议。 作为我们正在进行的活动的一部分，我们将通过公共访问网站传播信息资源 我们发展；介绍并发布我们的发现；并发展下一代学者解决 兵役对健康和福祉的寿命影响。 相关性（请参阅说明）： 退伍军人在老龄化人群中占相当一部分；了解军队的影响 经验，尤其是与作战的部署，将增强我们对他们长期影响的了解 衰老的健康和福祉。尽管这些知识对于理解当前的衰老队列很有用 退伍军人，随着未来年龄的年龄，这也将为OIF/OEF的“新”退伍军人计划很有用 年。
