Four Pillars of Defense: A Whole Health Approach to the Military

This study, called "Four Pillars of Defense," is testing a mobile application called Army Health. This app is designed to help improve the overall health and well-being of Soldiers and their family members. Researchers want to understand what makes people resilient (able to bounce back from tough times) and how to teach these skills. They are looking for Soldiers in the National Guard (NG) or their family members, aged 21 and older, to participate. The study aims to see if the Army Health app can improve resilience and emotion regulation (how you manage your feelings) after one month. The current status of this study is unclear.
