Children aged 8\u201317 years were assessed for symptoms of common mental disorders using the Child Revised Impact of Event Scale (CRIES-8) and abbreviated versions of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC) and the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders (SCARED).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S2045796020001079_sec_a3\" sec-type=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 852 participants, 23.7% (95% CI 19.9-27.2) screened positive for symptomatic depression, PTSD and anxiety. The prevalence estimates for depression, PTSD and anxiety were 12.5% (95% CI 9.8\u201315.6), 11.5% (95% CI 9.1\u201314.4) and 9.2% (95% CI 6.8\u201312.1), respectively. Depression and PTSD were significantly more common in older adolescents, whilst anxiety and PTSD were significantly more common in girls. Depression was more common in children from poorer households and those who had received no education. Children coming from larger households were less likely to show symptoms of PTSD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S2045796020001079_sec_a4\" sec-type=\"conclusions\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Syrian refugee children and adolescents are vulnerable to common mental disorders, and culturally appropriate prevention and intervention support are needed for this population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s2045796020001079","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,10]],"date-time":"2020-12-10T04:00:24Z","timestamp":1607572824000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":48,"title":["Prevalence of common mental disorders among Syrian refugee children and adolescents in Sultanbeyli district, Istanbul: results of a population-based survey"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1846-8691","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"N.","family":"Scherer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Hameed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Acarturk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Deniz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Sheikhani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Volkan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"\u00d6r\u00fcc\u00fc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"I.","family":"Pivato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"\u0130.","family":"Ak\u0131nc\u0131","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Patterson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Polack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"S2045796020001079_ref19","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1513","DOI":"10.1007\/s00787-018-1178-0","article-title":"Prevalence of war-related adverse events, depression and anxiety among Syrian refugee children settled in Turkey","volume":"27","author":"Kandemir","year":"2018","journal-title":"European Child and Adolescent Psychiatry"},{"key":"S2045796020001079_ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjc.12147"},{"key":"S2045796020001079_ref38","unstructured":"United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (2019) Syria Emergency.
