Psychological mindedness assessment procedure – validation study of a Dutch version

Objective. The Psychological Mindedness Assessment Procedure [PMAP; McCallum, M. & Piper, W E.

The Impact of Forced Migration on Mental Health: A Comparative Study on Posttraumatic Stress Among Internally Displaced and Externally Migrated Kurdish Women

In Turkey, the large scale of internal displacement is caused by armed conflict that occurs because of the struggle of Kurds to obtain political recognition and rights in Turkey. As a result, many asylum requests were conducted in Europe and a massive wave of internal displacement took place in Turkey. Forced migration is known to influence mental health. This empirical study conducted with migrated Kurdish women (N = 1,127) both in the European Union (EU) and in Turkey aimed to explore the relationships between posttraumatic stress reactions, forced migration, and mental health status.
