Hello again! In new content this week, we’ve got social science research on wealth, religion, and cohabitation trends; social and psychological factors affecting veterans’ long-term health; and how corporations use aesthetic deception on the internet.

Editors Desk:

“ASA’s New Network for Social Engagement,” by Doug Hartmann and Chris Uggen. The American Sociological Association launches a new initiative to connect sociologists to other organizations in an exciting way.

Discoveries:

“Indirect Effects of Combat on Veterans’ Health,” by Allison Nobles. New research in Socius finds that veterans’ long-term health is explained by more than combat experience itself. Poor health can result from a variety of social and psychological processes in veterans’ lives after returning home.
