Abstract
Interest in the psychosocial readjustment of Vietnam veterans has increased steadily since the end of the conflict in Southeast Asia. Federally funded studies have been proposed to examine the needs and problems of Vietnam veterans. This research note presents a questionnaire designed for Vietnam veterans, which is used to gather responses from 82 veterans. This survey found that these veterans were indeed suffering from psychosocial adjustment problems with differences between levels of combat experience. In conclusion, this questionnaire could be used to survey the wider population of Vietnam veterans suffering from undiagnosed psychosocial adjustment problems.
