结论 |
Airmen typically use ICT to augment interactions with others, and many seek health information online but need help evaluating its quality- As in the general population, Airmen typically use ICTs to augment interactions with real-world friends, family, and other Airmen, not to replace them.
- More than 30,000 Airmen may be facing serious difficulties due to their poorly controlled and disruptive Internet use; prior research suggests that such behaviors may not simply reflect a lack of self-discipline — they may be a sign of more serious mental-health issues.
- Airmen seek and use online mental-health information but need help evaluating its quality.
- Most Airmen prefer face-to-face communication with health professionals, but a sizable minority may prefer ICT alternatives.

摘要 |
- Promote policies that permit nondisruptive on-duty access to ICT to help strengthen family ties, social support networks, and well-being.
- Enhance strategic communication plans to increase Airmen's awareness of mental-health resources, encourage responsible help-seeking, and decrease the stigma of mental-health care.
- Continue to support access to ICTs during deployment.
- Educate leaders that ICT "addiction" may be a sign of broader problems and encourage appropriate referrals.
- Educate Airmen about how to recognize signs of problematic Internet use and what resources are available to help them address it.
- Teach Airmen how to protect themselves against and respond to cyberbullying.
- Provide basic guidelines for identifying credible websites and directing them to credible sources.
- Develop/leverage alternative communication modes to supplement, but not replace, face-to-face interaction between Airmen and mental-health-care professionals.
- Integrate into Air Force suicide-prevention training information about the potential role of ICT for identifying suicide risk factors and options for responding to suicidal messages.
- Explore targeted mental-health outreach through ICT during deployment.
- Explore through further research the experiences, needs, and attitudes of Airmen experiencing problematic Internet use.
- Explore through further research how Airmen in distress use ICT and thus potentially intervene and save lives.
- Explore through further research how Airmen would like to use ICT for mental-health support, for what types of problems, and why.
