Needs and Uses:
The information collection requirement is necessary to conduct an online study testing the potential for influence of the Real Warriors Campaign—a Department of Defense (DoD) mental health public awareness campaign—on participants of an online panel. Military service members, veterans, and friends and family members of service members and veterans will be recruited from the panel. They will complete online surveys and view mental health public awareness campaign materials (
e.g.,
public service announcements websites). The purpose of this research is to evaluate how exposure to this federally-funded mental health public awareness campaign changes key outcomes related to mental health and health care, such as mental health awareness (
e.g.,
knowing how to recognize and support someone with a mental health problem), perceptions and beliefs about stigma and other barriers to care (
e.g.,
social distance, concerns about career impacts), attitudes towards seeking professional help, intentions to seek treatment if needed, and intentions to conceal a mental health problem. DoD will use the findings from these analyses to improve the Real Warriors campaign. Additionally, the findings from the study will be shared through publicly available communications.
Affected Public:
