Deployment Risk and Resilience Inventory (DRRI)

The DRRI is a suite of scales assessing 14 key deployment-related risk and resilience factors with demonstrated implications for veterans' long-term health. For more information, read the DRRI history and development. The DRRI can also be used clinically. The DRRI includes scales to assess:

Predeployment/Prewar Factors:

• Prior Stressors Scale
• Childhood Family Environment Scale

Deployment/War-zone Factors:

• Self-Report of Nuclear/Biological Chemical (NBC) Exposures Scale
• Sense of Preparedness Scale
• Sexual Harassment Scale
• Combat Experiences Scale
• Concerns about Life and Family Disruption Scale
• Deployment Social Support Scale
• Difficult Living and Working Environment Scale
• Exposure to the Aftermath of Battle Scale
• General Harassment Scale
• Perceived Threat Scale

Postdeployment/Postwar Factors:

• Postdeployment Social Support Scale
• Postdeployment Stressors Scale

DRRI scales may be used individually or in unison, depending upon the needs of the researcher. The full inventory takes approximately 40 minutes to complete; individual scales can be completed in two to three minutes. For more information see King et al. (2006).
