Researchers point to several obstacles in higher education that can impact student veterans. For some, learning to seek help when needed is often a challenge. Student veterans may feel they must live up to a false expectation and not burden others with their problems, and have indicated challenges with interactions with faculty and difficulty with…

Data on implementation of school-based interventions adds highly valuable information to corresponding evaluation studies. Measuring implementation outcomes, such as fidelity or acceptability, provides information on how to improve current and future implementation processes. Moreover, analyzing intervention outcomes in combination with…
