Findings enhance our understanding of how refugees’ traumatization lingers and possibly affects their and their children’s health and well-being. Results from structural equation modeling indicated that there was no direct association between trauma of the mother and their children’s well-being, however, mothers’ posttraumatic stress and depressive symptoms significantly mediated the effects of mothers’ past torture on their children’s adjustment-a pattern indicative of intergenerational traumatization. and their indirect exposure to trauma was statistically controlled. Measures of mothers’ posttraumatic stress and depression were analyzed as three symptom clusters: volatility/panic, withdrawn/detached, and depressed mood. On average, mothers spent 7 years in refugee camps, experienced significant trauma, and some had been tortured. One hundred and ninety-eight Somali mothers ( M age = 39 years) and their children ( M age = 10 years 56% male) were studied. The current study sought to identify how Somali refugee mothers’ past trauma and current mental health impact their children’s psychosocial adjustment. The mechanisms linking refugee parents’ trauma onto their children’s functioning are not well understood. ![]()
