  • This study explored the extent to which deployed Airmen (N = 721) were concerned about relationship mistreatment and abuse (i.e., physical and emotional). The associations between demographic factors (e.g., gender, race, religion) and concerns about abuse were also examined. Although concerns about relationship mistreatment and abuse were generally low, Airmen who identified as White or Christian tended to report more concerns regarding emotional and physical abuse.
