STUDY TO ASSESS RISK & RESILIENCE IN SERVICEMEMBERS — LONGITUDINAL STUDY



The Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers — Longitudinal Study
(STARRS-LS) is a research project funded by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD)
to create practical, actionable information on risk reduction and
resilience-building for suicide, suicide-related behavior, and other
mental/behavioral health issues in the military. It continues and expands the
vital work begun by the Army STARRS project that was conducted from 2009 to
2015.

STARRS-LS, which began in 2015 and is currently approved to continue through
2025, is being led by Co-Principal Investigators Robert J. Ursano, MD (Uniformed
Services University of the Health Sciences) and Murray B. Stein, MD, MPH
(University of California, San Diego). Other major contributors are Ronald C.
Kessler, PhD (Harvard Medical School) and James Wagner, PhD (University of
Michigan).

Under STARRS-LS, the research team will:

 * Extend the reach of Army STARRS by conducting longitudinal follow-up studies
   of Soldiers throughout their Army careers and as they transition back to
   civilian life
 * Continue the use of the Army STARRS data and infrastructure
 * Collect additional new data for Army STARRS participants to learn more about
   their experiences
 * Further the use of the Army STARRS data for analyses

STARRS-LS will allow the researchers to continue producing actionable
information needed by DoD leadership to address important mental and behavioral
health issues in the military.

The Military Suicide Research Consortium (MSRC) supports studies on suicidal
behavior in the military to advance knowledge on risk assessment, treatment and
prevention. Click here to go to the MSRC website.
