TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Military sexual trauma: an application of the Toxic Triangle Model JO - Military behavioral health A1 - Jackson, Robert J. A1 - Lindsay, Douglas R. A1 - Matteson, Alicia A. SP - 64 EP - 66 VL - 2 IS - 1 N2 - Sexual assault in the military is an intolerable problem. A challenge in dealing with this problem has been the lack of a conceptual framework for comprehensively organizing needed interventions. Adapting the Toxic Triangle model developed by Padilla, Hogan, and Kaiser (2007), we examine military sexual assault from the interacting perspectives of conducive environments, destructive leaders, and susceptible followers. These components support tactical interventions, many of which can be conducted through the existing infrastructure of training and professional military education. Interventions include better leader development, accountability, and assertive followership.
