You may be among those invited to participate in the next round of a unique long-term study of the effects of military life on career, stress, well-being, health and adjustment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The invitations to participate in the DoD Millennium Cohort Family Study are coming this month by mail, from Department of Defense addresses. Researchers are hoping to recruit up to 50,000 military spouses in the continuing long-term study. The spouse survey takes about 45 minutes to complete, and participants are asked to take a follow-up survey every three to five years, over seven cycles \u2014 covering about 21 to 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The family study is the only DoD-wide research program examining the long-term effects of a military career on the health of military spouses. DoD researchers have the unique ability to conduct scientific random sampling processes for their studies, for scientific validity, because they have access to service member and spouse demographic and contact information. Only those who have received an invitation from DoD can participate in this study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the Millennium Cohort Family Study began in 2011, about 10,000 spouses have been involved. It\u2019s part of the DoD-wide Millennium Cohort Program of research, and is a companion study to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/2020\/09\/10\/heres-your-chance-to-make-a-difference-for-the-health-of-the-force-for-the-next-50-years\/\" target=_blank>Millennium Cohort Survey of Active-duty and Reserve\/Guard <\/a>personnel. Researchers are tracking about 200,000 participants in the millennium study of service members, expected to continue through at least 2068. The service member component of the study began in 2001; and new participants are added periodically. The participants continue after leaving the military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service member millennium study started recruiting again for new participants in September, and the family study recruiting began in January. In September, invitations were sent to about 500,000 DoD-registered email addresses of service members. The spouses of all service members who were invited to join the millennium study in September are being invited to enroll in the family study, according to John Marciano, spokesman for the Naval Health Research Center, which is conducting the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Researchers are seeking the perspectives of all types of spouses, said Marciano, including those who have current or prior military service themselves. \u201cThe Millennium Cohort Program is encouraging married partners to enroll together. However, spouses are welcome to enroll even if their service member partner chooses to decline participation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The information gathered from participants is for medical research only, and researchers maintain strict confidentiality of all data on participants. Data isn\u2019t shared with participants\u2019 chain of command, or with promotion boards, disability evaluators, insurance companies, or anyone else not directly involved in data data analysis. Only summary information from the entire group of hundreds of thousands of participants in the cohort program can be shared, with no identifying information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These studies provide the opportunity for researchers to track effects by following the same service members, veterans and spouses over time; and adding new participants may shed light on experiences of current service members and spouses, which may have changed over the last two decades.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Long-term DoD spouse study
