Abstract:
To map the state of the existing literature to identify the optimal time frame between the arrival of refugees in a host country and psychosocial assessments. We conducted scoping review using the method of Arksey and O\'Malley (2005). A systematic search of 5 databases including PubMed, Psycinfo (OVID), PsycINFO BD APA, Scopus and Web of Sciences) and grey literature identified 2698 references. Thirteen studies published between 2010 and 2021 were considered eligible. A data extraction grid was designed and tested by the research team. It is not so ease to identify the most appropriate time interval to assess the mental health of newly settled refugees. All the studies selected agree on the need to carry out an initial assessment when refugees arrive in their host country. Several authors agree on the need to carry out screening at least twice during the resettlement period. However, what is less clear is the best time to perform the second screening. This scoping review mainly helped in highlighting the lack of probing data on the mental health indicators focused on during the assessment and on the optimal timeline for the assessment of refugees. Further research is needed to determine whether developmental and psychological screening is beneficial, the right time to perform the screening, and the most appropriate collection instruments and interventions.
摘要:
绘制现有文献的状态,以确定难民到达东道国和社会心理评估之间的最佳时间框架。我们使用Arksey和O\'Malley(2005)的方法进行了范围审查。对PubMed等5个数据库进行了系统搜索,心理信息(OVID),PsycINFOBDAPA,Scopus和WebofSciences)和灰色文献确定了2698个参考文献。2010年至2021年发表的13项研究被认为是合格的。研究小组设计并测试了数据提取网格。确定最合适的时间间隔来评估新定居难民的心理健康并不容易。所有选定的研究都同意有必要在难民抵达东道国时进行初步评估。几位作者同意在重新安置期间需要至少进行两次筛查。然而,不太清楚的是进行第二次筛查的最佳时间。这项范围界定审查主要有助于强调缺乏评估期间重点关注的心理健康指标和评估难民的最佳时间表的调查数据。需要进一步的研究来确定发育和心理筛查是否有益,进行筛查的正确时间,以及最合适的收集工具和干预措施。
