  • Title: Psychological distress and neuroticism among Syrian refugee parents in post-resettlement contexts.
    Author: Khamis V.
    Journal: J Health Psychol; 2022 Apr; 27(5):1149-1164. PubMed ID: 33487027.
    Abstract:
    This study examined the contributions of parents' characteristics, normative stressors, coping strategies, and social support to psychological distress and neuroticism among 1000 Syrian refugees. The conditions of being older, mothers, partnered parents, and resettlement in Lebanon increased the risk of mental health problems. Mental health problems decreased with fathers' employment, large families, and time spent in the host country. Types of daily stressors had differential effects on psychological distress and neuroticism. While emotion-focused coping increased psychological distress and neuroticism, the use of problem-focused coping, and informational support reduced neuroticism. The clinical and policy implications of these conclusions were discussed.
