Review of Investigative Study Into the Relationship Between Gulf War Syndrome and Well-Being of Persian Gulf War Veteran
Many people see war as either a victory or a loss, but for some people, war has taught them the true essence of life and good health.
Investigative Study Into the Relationship Between Gulf War Syndrome and Well-Being of Persian Gulf War Veterans by Dr. Kevin C Newton is a dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Management in Organizational Leadership at the University of Phoenix.
This study involved a quantitative approach for data collected from 118 Gulf War veterans, with a response rate of 30% from the 362 participants. In an attempt to understand the Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) and the effects of the syndrome on Gulf War veterans, Dr. Newton embarks on this rigorous journey of data collection and research.
This quantitative, correlational study focused on Gulf War veterans who served in the Persian Gulf War between 1990 and 1992 in order to determine how well they were physically, socially, and emotionally, as well as their overall well-being. According to Levine, "Gulf War Syndrome, or GWS, is the label given to a variety of medical illnesses suffered by veterans who served in the conflicts in the Persian Gulf region." These symptoms include irritable bowel syndrome, sleep disturbances, night sweats, body aches, and many more.
The author was able to quickly compile a significant amount of information on participant characteristics by using an online survey questionnaire. Veterans who participated in the Gulf War between August 1990 and January 1992 were randomly selected for a probability sample.
It is crucial to remember that one of the goals of this research is to offer military leaders, medical professionals, and lawmakers a way to find and create new legislation for service connection disabilities that would apply to service members with GWS.
One of the revelations that stood out to me the most as I read further was that post-war soldiers who were discharged to civilian life experienced more difficulty adjusting than those who stayed in the military. Also, I got to understand that many veterans' marriages ended in divorce as a result of PTSD. Compared to veterans without PTSD, veterans with PTSD reported additional troubles in their marriages and communicated fewer feelings and thoughts to their spouses (Jordan et al., 1992).
The research was insightful and eye-opening. There weren't many severe spelling mistakes, and the author did a great job with the presentation of the facts. I'd rate this piece of work 5 out of 5 stars. The goal of the study was achieved, and many more people will be enlightened.
This work will be beneficial to those who are working on a research project.
