OBJECTIVE: To explore factors associated with long-term outcomes of work and marital status in individuals who had experienced a mild @entity542 (MHI), as well as those who had not. DESIGN: Population-based study using logistical regression analyses to investigate the impact of preinjury characteristics on work and marital status. @entity1 : Two groups of Vietnam-era Army veterans: 626 who had experienced a MHI an average of 8 years before examination, and 3,896 who had not. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Demographic characteristics, concurrent medical conditions, early life @entity146 problems, @entity909 ( @entity909 ), and interactions among these variables were used to predict current work and marital status. RESULTS: Multiple variables were associated with work and marital status in the sample with MHI, accounting for approximately 23% and 17% of the variance in these two outcome variables, respectively. In contrast, the same factors accounted for significantly less variance in outcome in the sample without a @entity542 -13.3% and 9.4% for work and marital status, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest a more potent role for and increased vulnerability to the influence of demographic, medical, and @entity146 factors on outcomes after a MHI. That is, MHI itself moderates the influence of preinjury characteristics on work and marital status. In addition, in those who had a MHI, moderator relationships were found between education and @entity909 for both work and marital status. Similarly, complex moderator relationships among race, region of residence, and @entity909 were found for both work and marital status outcomes.
