Change in Disability Associated with Psychological Distress among Internally Displaced Persons in Central Sudan
Individuals with disabilities are particularly vulnerable in conflict settings, and a high rate of psychopathology is well documented among persons with disabilities. The objective of this study was to explore the change in disability prevalence among IDPs in two settlement areas in central Sudan and the association between disability and psychological distress. In this one-year follow-up study, 1549 IDPs were interviewed twice using the General …
Changes in prevalence of mental disorders among internally displaced persons in central Sudan
The study revealed continued high levels and increases of mental disorders over time, although with a pattern of substantial persistence among those initially ill and limited recovery. This might be due to a complex set of factors such as unavailability of mental health services, poverty, low educational level and social exclusion
Alcohol use in South Sudan in relation to social factors, mental distress and traumatic events
Despite decades of civil war and great poverty the alcohol use in this population was at the same level as other countries in Southern Africa. Traumatic events were not related to risk of problem drinking
Social phobia among long-term internally displaced persons
BACKGROUND: Despite the high worldwide prevalence and association with other mental disorders and disability, only few studies are available on social phobia in low-income countries. AIMS: This study aims to assess the prevalence, socio-demographic correlates and comorbidity of social phobia and its association with disability among long-term internally displaced persons (IDPs) in one urban and one rural area in Central Sudan. METHODS: This cross…
Chronic pain in multi-traumatized outpatients with a refugee background resettled in Norway
Chronic pains are common in multi-traumatized refugees in outpatient clinics in Norway, and are positively related to symptomatology and severity of psychiatric morbidity. The presence of chronic pain, as well as comorbid chronic pain and PTSD, in psychiatric outpatients with a refugee background call for an integrated assessment and treatment for both conditions
Predictors of acculturative hassles among Vietnamese refugees in Norway
We investigated acculturative hassles in a community cohort of Vietnamese refugees in Norway ( n = 61), exploring cross-sectional data and longitudinal predictors of acculturative hassles using data from their arrival in Norway in 1982 (T1), with follow up in 1985 (T2) and in 2005-2006 (T3). To our knowledge, this is the first longitudinal study of predictors of acculturative hassles in a refugee population. Results indicated that more communicat…
The mental health of internally displaced persons
AIMS: There is a scarcity of data on mental health problems among Sudanese internally displaced persons (IDPs). This study aims to assess the prevalence of mental disorders of IDPs in Sudan, and to determine and compare the association between mental disorders and socio-demographic variables between the rural and urban long-term IDP populations. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was implemented in two IDP areas in Central Sudan. Data were colle…
Disability associated with exposure to traumatic events
The finding of association between traumatic experience and disability underlines the precariousness of the human rights situation for individuals with disability in low-income countries. It also has possible implications for the construction of disability services and for the provision of health services to individuals exposed to traumatic events
Seeking balance between the past and the present

The mental health of populations directly and indirectly exposed to violent conflict in Indonesia

Physician Utilization among Refugees with Psychiatric Disorders
A study was made of the health status, physician utilization, and response to offered assistance, in a consecutive community cohort of Vietnamese refugees in Norway, with special emphasis on mental health. After three years in Norway, 79 per cent of those subjects with psychiatric disorders had no contact with a primary care physician, and none were in contact with public mental health care services. However, 52 per cent of the subjects with a ps…
Integration of Vietnamese Refugees into the Norwegian Labor Market
Integration of Vietnamese Refugees into the Norwegian Labor Market
One hundred forty-five Vietnamese boat refugees were interviewed on arrival and after three years in Norway. The integration into the labor market was poor and the rate of unemployment was relatively high (16%). Eighty-two (63%) were members of the labor force, the rest being students (n=41) or housewives (n=6). Both loss of social status in Vietnam in 1975 and experiences of war trauma were independently related to labor force participation, whe…
