Self-reports of war-zone stress exposure correlated well with records-based MHM war-zone stress exposure. A high percentage of veterans categorized as low exposure on the basis of records-based MHM evidence had self-reported low exposure. Veterans who self-reported high exposure were the large majority of the MHM very high exposure category. Full sample n = 1189, excluding 11 veterans with missing data on self-reported war-zone exposure. Low and moderate self-reports of exposure were grouped together as ‘‘Low self-reported war-zone stress’’ [(2), Appendix C].
