- Community reintegration (i.e., return to daily activities within the community) following deployment can be difficult for veterans. Therefore, this replication study examined self-efficacy and various contextual factors (i.e., policy barriers, physical and structural barriers, work and school barriers, attitudes and support barriers, and services and assistance barriers) that influence community reintegration among physically or psychologically injured veterans who were women (N = 31). Veterans completed self-report measures on all variables under investigation. Contextual factors were not associated with community reintegration; however, self-efficacy was associated with community reintegration.
