abstract="<b>Objective:</b> The purpose of this study was to explore (a) current utilization rates of university mental health services among American Indian/Alaskan Native/Native Hawaiian (AI/AN/NH) student veterans and (b) predictors of mental health service utilization among AI/AN student veterans. <b>Participants:</b> Data for this cross-sectional study were obtained from the American College Health Association (ACHA)'s 2011-2014 National College Health Assessment II (<i>n</i> = 103). <b>Methods:</b> University mental health service utilization rates were calculated as a percentage for AI/AN/NH student veterans. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine predictors of mental health service utilization. <b>Results:</b> Results showed that 14% of AI/AN/NH student veterans have used university mental health services. Predictors of mental health service utilization in this population included financial stress, lack of deployment during service, suicidal ideation, and a diagnosis of depression, model [Formula: see text] (13) = 162. 128, <i>p</i> < 0.001, Nagelkerke <i>R</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.130. <b>Conclusion:</b> This research identified gaps in service provision for AI/AN service member and veteran students on college campuses and provided possible models for intervention development.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
