SANTA BARBARA, CA - July 15, 2011 - The Palm Center is pleased to announce that the article "Attitudes of Iraq and Afghanistan War Veterans toward Gay and Lesbian Service Members" was the most-downloaded article in 2010 from the journal in which it was published, Armed Forces and Society. The article, co-authored by Palm Center Scholar Bonnie Moradi and Laura Miller of the RAND Corporation, featured a statistical experiment on whether the "outness" of gay or lesbian service members impacted the cohesion of their units. The resulting data found no evidence for the conclusion that open gay and lesbian service damaged unit cohesion.
The report is available at the link below:
