Abstract

The article focuses on a research report examining the psychological impact of body disfigurement on veterans injured during military service. Conducted by researchers at Texas Woman's University, the integrative review analyzed studies published between 2014 and 2024, identifying common psychological effects, coping strategies, and adaptations among veterans. Key findings highlighted the importance of resilience, family support, and post-traumatic growth in the healing process, while also suggesting that future research should include longitudinal studies to better understand the long-term effects of visible injuries on veterans.
