Exposure to Violence Among Syrian Refugee Women Preflight and During Flight
Violence against women (VAW) is a hidden aspect of humanitarian emergencies, especially during conflicts, and prevalence estimates remain scarce. An adequate response to VAW in humanitarian contexts requires information regarding the extent of the problem and associated factors, including the role of past violence. This study is a questionnaire survey of a random sample of 452 Syrian refugee women resettled in Sweden. Findings show that the preva…
Exploring associations between subjective well-being and personality over a time span of 15–18 months
The present findings indicate that although correlated, bidirectional prospective effects between personality traits and SWB could not be confirmed. Neuroticism displayed the strongest negative association with adolescents' SWB. Schools are an appropriate setting to improve well-being, and allocating resources that reduce neuroticism is crucial, including structural interventions, policies for healthy school settings and teaching emotional regula…
Early work-environmental indicators of bullying in an academic setting
The purpose of this study was to use a longitudinal approach to investigate the association between work-related psychosocial factors and workplace bullying in an academic setting. A questionnaire was sent out three times to about 4500 academic- and non-academic staff in a medical university. Those two group were analyzed together and separately. Logistic regression analyses were used to calculate odds ratios (OR). In the study, we found that fac…

Social support attenuates the link between torture exposure and post-traumatic stress disorder among male and female Syrian refugees in Sweden
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is threefold: (i) to establish the psychometric properties and gender invariance of ENRICHD Social Support Inventory (ESSI), which was used for the first time in the present study in the population of Syrian refugees resettled in Sweden; (ii) to assess whether gender moderates the associations between social support, exposure to torture and PTSD; (iii) to assess whether social support mediates the association bet…
Suicidal ideation and attempts in population-based samples of women
The results raise a general concern about an increasing trend in suicidal ideation among young and middle-aged women. The current study expands on previous research by demonstrating that sociodemographic factors may show changing patterns in the associations with lifetime suicidal ideation over time
Development and Preliminary Validation of Refugee Trauma History Checklist (RTHC)—A Brief Checklist for Survey Studies
The proposed refugee trauma history checklist (RTHC) consists of 2 × 8 items, concerning PTEs that occurred before and during the respondents' flight, respectively. Results show low item non-response and adequate psychometric properties Conclusion: RTHC is a usable tool for providing self-report data on refugee trauma history surveys of community samples. The core set of included events can be augmented and slight modifications can be applied to …
Prevalence of intimate partner violence and its association with symptoms of depression; a cross-sectional study based on a female population sample in Sweden
A strength with this study is the analysis of controlling behavior and its association with self-reported symptoms of depression in a female population based sample. Exposure to controlling behavior, physical and sexual violence by an intimate partner were clearly associated with women's self-reported symptoms of depression
Change in depressive symptoms over higher education and professional establishment - a longitudinal investigation in a national cohort of Swedish nursing students
The findings indicate an independent but transitional effect of time in education and professional establishment on depressive symptoms. We think heightened distress over education abates as the graduate accommodates to the profession. Nevertheless, within education, the differences in depressive symptoms associated to demographic factors can help identify student groups more vulnerable to distress. Also, as individual differences in distress see…
Experienced Stress, Psychological Symptoms, Self-Rated Health and Academic Achievement
In this study we investigated whether or not problems experienced during years at university affect academic achievement.

Students' sociodemographic characteristics, their experience of stressors, psychological symptoms, and mental and general health ratings were linked t…
