Abstract:
The United Nations described the Syrian conflict as the worst man-made disaster since World War II. We adopted a global perspective in examining the impact of the Syrian conflict on Syrians\' physical, mental, and social well-being using the Gallup World Poll. Face-to-face interview data of 11,452 Syrian participants from 2008 to 2015 show that Syrians\' physical (e.g., access to shelter), mental (e.g., life satisfaction), and social (e.g., social support) well-being decline substantially. Syrians who reported being exposed to the conflict are similarly affected compared to those without direct exposure, suggesting country-wide spillover effects. Global data covering 1.7 million participants across 163 countries from 2006 to 2016 show during the conflict, Syria\'s precipitous decline in well-being is unparalleled in the world, even when compared to countries similarly experiencing war, protests, and disasters. Our findings reinforce the vital importance of an accelerated peace process to restore well-being in Syria.
摘要:
联合国将叙利亚冲突描述为自第二次世界大战以来最严重的人为灾难。我们采用了全球视角来审视叙利亚冲突对叙利亚人的影响,心理,和社会福祉使用盖洛普世界民意调查。2008年至2015年11,452名叙利亚参与者的面对面访谈数据显示,叙利亚人的身体(例如,进入避难所),心理(例如,生活满意度),和社会(例如,社会支持)幸福感大幅下降。与没有直接接触的叙利亚人相比,报告暴露于冲突的叙利亚人受到的影响类似,暗示了全国性的溢出效应。从2006年到2016年,涵盖163个国家170万参与者的全球数据显示,在冲突期间,叙利亚的福祉急剧下降在世界上是无与伦比的,即使与同样经历战争的国家相比,抗议,和灾难。我们的发现加强了加快和平进程以恢复叙利亚福祉的至关重要性。
