Family Adaptation of Single Parents in the United States Army: An Empirical Analysis of Work Stressors and Adaptive Resources.

Bowen, Gary L.; And Others

Family Relations, v42 n3 p293-304 Jul 1993

Examined relative contribution of work stressors, family and community resources, and Army support resources to family adaptation of 238 single parents serving on active duty in U.S. Army. Results indicated that adaptation of single-parent families to Army demands were influenced more strongly by availability of family, community, and Army resources than by presence of work stressors.
