Abstract

The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore service members' post-assault reporting decisions through narrative inquiry to identify points of intervention to improve or sustain reporting of military sexual assault. New knowledge about reporting decisions can inform specific interventions to increase reporting and, by extension, uptake of healthcare services that improve long-term health outcomes.
