This research aims to explore how resilience and attitudes towards help-seeking relate to psychological well-being among military service members.
Cross-sectional study involving New Zealand Defence Force personnel (N = 2,805).
Participants completed self-report measures for psychological well-being, resilience, stigma, and past-year help-seeking.
Statistical analysis assessed the relationship between resilience, help-seeking stigma, and psychological well-being.
Higher resilience is associated with greater psychological flourishing and lower psychological distress.
Lower help-seeking stigma correlates with better overall mental health.
Help-seeking behaviors moderate the relationship between resilience and psychological distress, strengthening these associations.
