Note. AC = active component; CI = confidence interval; CO = commissioned officer; NCO = noncommissioned officer; OR = odds ratio; RNG = Reserve–National Guard. The sample size was n = 1330. Eligible participants were veteran servicewomen who served during Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom any point from October 2001 to the time of the interview. Data were collected March 2010–December 2011.
Servicewomen were asked about leadership behaviors specific to nondeployed locations and current service (i.e., AC or RNG). This includes all servicewomen who experienced SAIM in a nondeployed location (i.e., not while deployed) for their most recent service (AC or RNG).
