Abstract

Objectives—Despite experiencing migration-related stress and social adversity, immigrants are
less likely to experience an array of adverse behavioral and health outcomes. Guided by the

healthy migrant hypothesis, which proposes that this paradox can be explained in part by selection

effects, we examine the prevalence and comorbidity of mental disorders among immigrants to the

United States (US).

Methods—Findings are based on the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related
Conditions (2012–2013), a nationally representative survey of 36,309 adults in the US.

Results—Immigrants were significantly less likely than US-born individuals to meet criteria for
a lifetime disorder (AOR = 0.63, 95% CI = 0.57–0.71) or to report parental history of psychiatric

problems. Compared to US-born individuals, the prevalence of mental disorders was not

significantly different among individuals who immigrated as children; however, differences were

observed for immigrants who arrived as adolescents (ages 12–17) or as adults (age 18+).

Discussion—Consistent with the healthy migrant hypothesis, immigrants are less likely to come
from families with psychiatric problems, and those who migrate after childhood—when selection

effects are most likely to be observed—have the lowest levels of psychiatric morbidity.

Abstract

Objectives: Uninsured immigrants to the US are psychologically vulnerable due to limited
access to mental health services. Latina/o immigrants from Central and South America are further

at risk due to high levels of trauma exposure, both in their country of origin and adopted country.

Effective behavioral interventions in primary care are needed to address this services gap for

common trauma-related mental disorders, including depression and posttraumatic stress disorder

(PTSD). A naturalistic prospective study compared depression and PTSD outcomes for uninsured

primary care patients, mostly Latina/o immigrants, in clinics with distinct models for integrating

behavioral health services. One clinic had a collaborative care program, i.e., a multi-component,

system-level intervention with the goals of facilitating increased screening, improving accuracy,

increasing uptake of evidence-based treatment, and utilizing measurement-based treatment to

target. The other had co-located services, with an on-site therapist.

Features (PTSD-SP): Diagnostic and Treatment Challenges

Abstract

Trauma exposure leads to various psychiatric disorders including depression, anxiety, bipolar

disorders, personality disorders, psychotic disorders, and trauma related disorders, especially

posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). There are some overlapping symptoms of both PTSD and

psychosis that make diagnosis challenging. Despite this overlap, the evidence of PTSD with

comorbid psychosis as a distinct entity lies in the research showing biologic, genetic and treatment

management differences between psychotic PTSD, non-psychotic PTSD, psychotic disorders and

healthy controls. There is emerging evidence that PTSD with secondary psychotic features (PTSD-

SP) might be a discrete entity of PTSD with known risk factors that increase its prevalence. This

review has presented evidence for individuals with PTSD-SP being distinct in genetics and

neurobiological factors. Individuals with PTSD and comorbid psychosis can benefit from evidence

based psychotherapy (EBT). There is not enough evidence to recommend second generation

antipsychotics (SGA) for PTSD-SP given that risperidone and quetiapine are the only SGAs

studied in randomized controlled trials. Hence, developing an operational diagnostic criteria and

treatment framework for clinical and research use is critical.

Abstract

Background: Immigrant African gay and bisexual men (GBM) are at risk for substance use and
adverse mental health outcomes due to negative experiences in home and host countries. Little is

known about correlates of substance use and mental health outcomes in this population. We

explored pre- and post-migratory factors associated with substance use and depression in recently

migrated African GBM.

Methods: Participants (N=70) were recruited between July-November 2015 in NYC. Eligible
participants were administered a structured questionnaire. Correlates of substance use and

depression were identified using bivariate and multivariable analyses.

Results: Factors independently associated with current substance use were age, openness about
sexual orientation, homophobic experiences in home country, forced sex in home country, current

housing instability, and internalized homophobia. Factors independently associated with

depression were post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and alcohol use. Substance use and

depression were associated with negative experiences in home and host country.

Abstract

Children of immigrants represent one in four children in the United States and will represent one

in three children by 2050. Children of Asian and Latino immigrants together represent the

majority of children of immigrants in the United States. Children of immigrants may be

immigrants themselves, or they may have been born in the United States to foreign-born parents;

their status may be legal or undocumented. We review transcultural and culture-specific factors

that influence the various ways in which stressors are experienced; we also discuss the ways in

which parental socialization and developmental processes function as risk factors or protective

factors in their influence on the mental health of children of immigrants. Children of immigrants

with elevated risk for mental health problems are more likely to be undocumented immigrants,

refugees, or unaccompanied minors. We describe interventions and policies that show promise for

reducing mental health problems among children of immigrants in the United States.

INTRODUCTION

Migration is a worldwide phenomenon, and the United States is the leading destination of

international migration (Connor & Lopez 2016). Some immigrants arrive alone, and other

immigrants form family units and either arrive with children or have children in the

destination country. This review focuses on the mental health of children with immigrant

Mental health among immigrants in
Germany – the impact of self-attribution
and attribution by others as an immigrant
Yuriy Nesterko1*, Michael Friedrich1, Elmar Brähler2, Andreas Hinz1 and Heide Glaesmer1

Abstract

Background: In Germany, the term ‘migration background’ has been established to differentiate between
immigrants and natives. In the present study post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression were
analysed in immigrant populations in Germany by considering self-attribution as well as attribution by others on
one’s own ‘migration background’.

Methods: In a population-based survey (N = 2317), socio-demographic characteristics, migration background
(official statistics definition vs. self-attribution as well as the anticipated attribution by others), PTSD (PCL-5), and
symptoms of anxiety and depression (PHQ-4) were assessed. Logistic regression models were applied to predict
mental health outcomes by considering socio-demographic and immigration-related factors.

Results: A total of 10.7% of respondents (N = 248) had a ‘migration background’. Immigrants of the 2nd generation
compared to 1st generation immigrants are less likely to see themselves as immigrants. Attribution as an immigrant
(self and/or by others) was found as significant predictor for PTSD and depression, but not anxiety.

Conclusions: It seems useful to focus on immigration-related factors considering subjective perspectives and not
only comparing immigrants and natives using a federal statistics definition. Our findings suggest that research on
the association between immigration-related factors such as attribution as an immigrant and mental health
outcomes might be a promising approach to better identify subgroups at higher risk of mental distress.

Keywords: Immigration, Self-attribution, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression

Introduction
The impact of immigration – as a multidimensional, long-
term process – on mental health status of immigrants has
been repeatedly demonstrated in empirical studies over
the last few decades [1–3]. Accordingly, it has often been
noted that the immigration process is associated with
hardships, difficulties, and in its consequence with a higher
vulnerability to mental health problems [4–6], even though
direction, type, and level of severity of the relationship
health and migration are very complex. However, there are
studies indicating better mental health in different groups
of immigrants compared with the native populations [1,
7], whereas other studies report worse mental health

outcomes among different groups of immigrants [8–10].
The findings are often contradictory and thus might be at-
tributed to differences in respect to the methodology of
each study [3]. In Germany, a country with a high propor-
tion of immigrants, the term ‘person with a migration
background’, has been established to

Abstract

Background

People living in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are disproportionately exposed to trauma and

may be at increased risk for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, a dearth of

population-level representative data from SSA is a barrier to assessing PTSD. This manu-

script sought to calculate pooled PTSD prevalence estimates from nationally and regionally

representative surveys in SSA.

Methods and findings

The search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, and PTSDpubs and was last

run between October 18, 2019, and November 11, 2019. We included studies that were

published in peer-reviewed journals; used probabilistic sampling methods and systematic

PTSD assessments; and included � 450 participants who were current residents of an SSA

country, at least 50% of whom were aged between 15 and 65 years. The primary outcomes

were point prevalence estimates of PTSD across all studies, and then within subgroups.

The protocol was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic

Reviews (PROSPERO) (registration number CRD42016029441). Out of 2,825 unique arti-

cles reviewed, 25 studies including a total of 58,887 eligible participants (54% fema
