Purpose: This study was done to evaluate the Military Mental Health Promotion Program. The program was an email based cognitivebehavioral intervention.
Methods: The research design was a quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group pretestposttestdesign. Participants were 32 soldiers who agreed to participate in the program. Data were collected at three different times fromJanuary 2012 to March 2012; pre-test, post-test, and a one-month follow-up test. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 18.0. The effectiveness of the program was tested by repeated measures ANOVA.
Results: The first hypothesis that the level of depression inthe experimental group who participated in the program would decrease compared to the control group was not supported in that thedifference in group-time interaction was not statistically significant (F=2.19, p=.121). The second and third hypothesis related to anxietyand self-esteem were supported in group-time interaction, respectively (F=7.41, p=.001, F=11.67, p<.001).
Conclusion: Results indicatethat the program is effective in improving soldiers’ mental health status in areas of anxiety and self-esteem.
