Adding insult to injury: Exploring the relation between moral injury and military sexual trauma

LAY SUMMARY This article highlights how the current literature conceptualizes and describes the link between military sexual trauma and moral injury. It describes some potential effects of sexual- assault-related moral injury on survivors and contributes to the broader, growing understanding of how sexual assault affects survivors, researchers, clinicians, and policy makers involved in the health and well-being of military members. Furthermore, this work can inform the development of future clinical interventions for individuals with more unique circumstances, such as those who may have experienced moral injury related to sexual trauma in the military.
