THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POST DEPLOYMENT TRANSITION, PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AND FAMILY RELATIONSHIP AMONG MILITARY PERSONNEL IN GHANA.

ABSTRACT

The study assessed the relationship between post deployment transition, psychological well-being and family relationship among Ghanaian soldiers. The study further investigated the role of post deployment social support in moderating the relationship between post deployment transition and psychological well-being. A total of One hundred and thirty- four Army personnel of the Ghana Armed Forces participated in the study. A survey questionnaire was used to collect data. Four hypotheses were analyzed using the Pearson Correlation Coefficient, Multivariate Analysis of Variance and Hierarchical Multiple Regression. The outcome of the analysis indicated that post deployment transition had a significant relationship with psychological well-being as well as family relationship. Also, post-deployed military personnel reported significantly poorer psychological well-being and family relationship when compared to their non-deployed counterparts. Post deployment social support did not moderate the relationship between post deployment transition and psychological health. Results of the study are discussed with reference to other studies as well as within the framework of theories. Recommendations for future studies as well as implications of study outcome are discussed
