    Author: Ebata K, Miyake Y.
    Journal: Int J Soc Psychiatry; 1989; 35(2):164-72. PubMed ID: 2788630.
    Abstract:
    A mental health survey was conducted using the Cornell Medical Index (CMI) on Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in Japan. 64.5% of the females and 37.2% of the males displayed emotional disturbance. The refugees with life-threatening and/or concentration camp experience had significantly higher CMI scores than those without it (t test, P less than 0.05). CMI scores of the group residing in Japan for 4-5 years are markedly lower than the group residing there for 2-3 years (F test, P less than 0.05).
