摘要：This article analyses available indicators and evaluates the presence of violent behavior in families of Croatian war veterans and active military personnel. Based on available data and the specificity of the military profession, key risk factors for the appearance of family violence in the military population are analyzed. Special attention is given to stressors of the military profession that negatively affect the psychological and physical health of military personnel as well as the overall functioning of families and health effects of family’s members. Due to experiences from the Homeland War, characteristics of the Croatian military population, their specificities and possible connection to the appearance of violent behavior are critically examined. Special emphasis is placed on the need and possibility for preventive action in removing or mitigation of this unwanted behavior at various social levels.
