Abstract

Veterans who experience self-directed moral injury often experience guilt and shame, which may impact reintegration. In the present study PTSD symptoms mediated the association between moral injury reintegration, suggesting that PTSD symptoms may help explain the relationship between self-directed moral injury symptoms and reintegration difficulties.
