Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a prevalent mental health concern among displaced populations. This study investigated the effects of resilience, education and gender on PTSD among displaced victims of the flood in Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey of 721 adult displaced victims (men = 329, women = 292) aged 18–85 years d…
Roles of Loneliness, Stress, and Religiosity in Suicide Ideation Among Nigerian Older Adults
Suicidal behavior in older adults is a fundamental public health problem globally and the highest suicide rates occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, there is limited research on suicidality among older adults, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. We sought to find out whether loneliness, stress and religiosity would be associated with suicide ideation in a sample of sub-Saharan African older adults ( N = 500; aged 51–70 years,…

This study adopted a cross-sectional survey design to investigate the direct effect of social anxiety on internet addiction among adolescent students and the moderating role …
Appetitive aggression in offending youths
Locating event centrality in associations of emotion regulation with posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms and posttraumatic growth in emerging adults
Previous research suggests that cognitive reappraisal (CR) and expressive suppression (ES) strategies of emotion regulation (ER) are associated with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and posttraumatic growth (PTG). How the patterns of these associations may vary in the context of event centrality (EC) however requires investigation to help delineate groups for whom the impact of event centrality may be more salient. We examined whether EC woul…
Roles of gender, social anxiety and extraversion in drinking patterns among Nigerian students
Background Effective interventions to curb the growing alcohol use problem in African countries require an understanding of critical factors associated with drinking patterns. Previous studies have examined the contributions of gender, social anxiety and extraversion in alcohol use, but little research exists on the operationalization of drinking patterns as high-risk situations for alcohol use, and the contributions of these factors. This study …

Prolonged grief disorder symptoms in bereaved internally displaced Tiv persons in Nigeria
There is burgeoning research on prolonged grief disorder (PGD) among several vulnerable populations but PGD symptoms have been scarcely examined among bereaved internally displaced persons (IDPs). This study investigated the associations of rumination, rebirth concerns and gender with symptoms of PGD following conflict-related bereavement. Participants were 379 Nigerian IDPs who were of the Tiv ethnic group. They provided demographics and complet…
