| Abstract | Using a sample of Canadian Forces personnel (N 490) returning from deployment in Afghan-istan, we tested a model of reintegration experiences, with a focus on affective organizational commitment, support factors, posttraumatic stress symptoms, changes in alcohol use, and turn-over intentions. The model provided an excellent fit to the data, although homecoming experi-ences were not associated with commitment as predicted. No differences emerged between novice (single tour) and experienced (multiple tours) personnel, although the number of tours was associated with increased affective commitment as expected. |
