Glover-Graf, Noreen M.; Miller, Eva; Freeman, Samuel
Rehabilitation Education, v24 n1-2 p43-56 2010
Iraq veterans were asked to describe readjustment difficulties following their return from combat service. A qualitative analysis addressed four themes (professional concerns, social interactions, behavioral and emotional challenges, and changing life views) relevant to post service classroom adjustment. Recommendations for educational accommodations are provided based upon review of the literature and qualitative data analysis. (Contains 1 footnote.)
