The majority of Afghan asylum seekers and refugees come to Austria from Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan. While those from Afghanistan faced predominantly war-related traumatic events, those from Iran and Pakistan encountered discriminatory experiences related to the host countries. This vulnerable population’s mental health is further strained by different post-migration stressors in Austria. The purpose of the present study was to explore pre-migration environmental differences and association of different sociodemographic and forced-migration related risk factors to mental health outcomes, and the mediation and moderation effects of post-migration stressors. Data were collected from 305 Afghan participants (155 asylum seekers and 150 refugees) that came from Afghanistan, Iran or Pakistan through nonrandom sampling in Austria. Of the 305 participants, 161 (52.8%) had anxiety, 176 (57.7%) depression, 32 (10.5%) ICD-11 PTSD, and 63 (20.7%) ICD-11 CPTSD. In bivariate analyses, being asylum seeker, being divorced, being Pashtun, and higher number of traumata and stressors in pre-migration and post-migration environments were associated with higher prevalence of mental health problems. Pre-migration traumata and post-migration stressors significantly predicted all mental health outcomes in multiple linear regression analyses. Post-migration stressors significantly meditated and moderated the association between pre-migration traumata and mental health symptoms. The findings support pre-migration traumata’s effects and aggravating role of post-migration stressors in mental health of Afghan asylum seekers and refugees in Austria. Our findings imply the importance of implementing proactive and culturally relevant psychosocial interventions that emphasize prevention of post-migration stressors or mitigating their effects on the mental health.

AbstractThe full-scale military invasion has changed the lives of all Ukrainians forever. The necessity to understand how the traumatic experiences of the first months of the war affected people’s ability of life-making, how it changed this ability was the reason for conducting this study. In April–May 2022, 169 respondents wrote essays based on 4 questions about their experience. The sample consisted of 78% women, 22% men (age M = 43.2, SD = 12), 43.2% had personal experience of being under fire. Descriptive and interpretative analyses, multiple correspondence analyses, and comparative analyses were conducted to identify key variables, types of life-making landscapes, and their possible correlations. The landscape of service (27.8%), care (23.7%), and existential landscape (24.3%) were the most spread. More than half of respondents (54.4%) described the experience of losses of relationship, usual lifestyle, home or earnings. In addition, 16.6% mentioned feeling of guilt. The trajectories of the value-time dynamics that set the type of landscape during war differ from that revealed during the pandemic. The loss of relationships is mentioned most often and the most painful part of the guilt experience is the feeling of helplessness in relation to loved ones. A passive or active position in responding to events and multi-contextual or narrow individual perception of the situation turned out to be the most important for a respondent’s place in the psychological space of the studied variables.

AbstractChild marriage (CM) and intimate partner violence (IPV) are two global public health concerns, particularly in developing nations such as India. Despite this, evidence of the association between the two is limited. This study aims to examine the association between CM and lifetime experiences of IPV among Indian women. The study utilized the National Family Health Survey, 2019–2021 (NFHS-5), a large scale representative survey, to examine the association between CM and lifetime experiences of IPV in India. A total of 60,480 participants (Mage = 33.67 years) were included in the analysis. The prevalence of CM in the current sample was 38.3%. Experiencing any form of IPV, including emotional IPV, physical IPV, injuries, and sexual IPV, was reported by 29.9%, 11.9%, 26.4%, 6.0%, and 5.2%, participants respectively. Logistic regressions indicated that getting married before the age of 18 was significantly associated with experiencing any form of IPV (odds ratio (OR) = 1.52, 95% CI = 1.47–1.58, p < 0.01)), emotional IPV (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.26–1.49, p < 0.01), physical IPV (OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.52–1.63, p < 0.01), injuries (OR = 1.61, 95% CI = 1.51–1.72, p < 0.01), and sexual IPV (OR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.32–1.53, p < 0.01) from their intimate partners. Findings suggest that interventions are required for substantial reductions in CM and IPV.Keywords: Child marriageintimate partner violenceIndiaNational Family Health Survey Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsShankey VermaDr. Shankey Verma is Ph.D. in Behavioural Sciences from OP Jindal Global University, Sonipat, Haryana, India.

童婚(CM)和亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是两个全球公共卫生问题,特别是在印度等发展中国家。尽管如此,两者之间联系的证据是有限的。本研究旨在探讨CM与印度女性IPV终生经历之间的关系。该研究利用了2019-2021年全国家庭健康调查(NFHS-5),这是一项大规模代表性调查,以研究印度CM与IPV终生经历之间的关系。共有60,480名参与者(年龄为33.67岁)被纳入分析。目前样本CM患病率为38.3%。经历任何形式的IPV,包括情感IPV、身体IPV、伤害和性IPV,分别有29.9%、11.9%、26.4%、6.0%和5.2%的参与者报告。Logistic回归分析表明,18岁之前结婚的明显与任何形式的相关IPV(优势比(或)= 1.52,95% CI -1.58 = 1.47, p < 0.01),情感IPV(或= 1.33,95% CI -1.49 = 1.26, p < 0.01),物理IPV(或= 1.58,95% CI -1.63 = 1.52, p < 0.01),伤害(或= 1.61,95% CI -1.72 = 1.51, p < 0.01),和性IPV(或= 1.42,95% CI -1.53 = 1.32, p < 0.01),从他们的亲密伙伴。研究结果表明,需要采取干预措施来大幅减少CM和IPV。关键词:童婚亲密伴侣暴力印度国家家庭健康调查披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。关于贡献者的说明shankey VermaDr。Shankey Verma,印度哈里亚纳邦索尼帕特金达尔全球大学行为科学博士。他的研究兴趣为亲密伴侣暴力、公共卫生、心理健康和心理测量学。Rashmi Choudhury是phil。来自印度古吉拉特邦拉什特里亚罗刹大学。她的研究兴趣是儿童心理学、对妇女的暴力行为、受害者学和心理健康。

Helpful workplace support strategies and accommodations (WSSA) for bereaved parents returning to work was assessed via comprehensive search of databases from 1990-1/21/22. 11 of 45 qualitative articles met inclusion. Bereaved parents often felt returning to work provided a coping strategy for and/or distraction from grief; however, some received insensitive comments by employer/coworkers. Helpful WSSA included flexibility on date to return to work and schedule. In conclusion, due to the intensity of their grief, bereaved parents benefit from a workplace offering individualized time off for bereavement & workplace accommodations to address potential difficulty meeting prior productivity demands.

Our purpose was to identify longitudinal associations between torture exposure, physical and mental health outcomes, and gender in a cohort of 143 war-affected Karen adults five years post resettlement. Results showed that participants who self-reported primary torture experiences had higher rates of certain mental and physical health diagnoses. We observed gender differences in health over time in the cohort. Findings have implications for how primary care and public health providers implement war trauma screening tools and timelines, targeted healthcare services, and community resources to promote health and prevent disease in populations that have trauma from torture or war.

PTSD and depression represent major individual and societal burdens. Depression is commonly comorbid with PTSD among veterans, although buffers of this relationship are unclear. We evaluated whether facets of mindfulness moderated the relationship between PTSD and depression in veterans with PTSD (N = 70). Three facets - nonjudging, acting with awareness, and nonreactivity - were assessed as moderators. Results indicated nonreactivity significantly attenuated the relationship between PTSD and depression (p=.013), such that veterans with high nonreactivity (+1 SD) showed a nonsignificant relationship between PTSD and depression, whereas veterans with average (Mean; p<.001) and low (-1 SD; p<.001) nonreactivity exhibited a significant relationship.
