▼a This three-paper dissertation aims to explore how contextual factors (e.g., social and cultural norms, policies, and economic conditions) in two locations, Buffalo, NY and Istanbul, Turkey, influence the mental health, resilience, and gender roles of Syrian refugees. The study is a convergent parallel mixed-methods design in which data analysis consists of merging quantitative (QUAN) and qualitative (QUAL) data and comparing the results from both data sets and locations. The QUAN data drew upon a sample of adult Syrian refugees in Buffalo, NY (N=82) and Istanbul, Turkey (N=103). The QUAL data consists of four group interviews (N=25). As a theoretical framework, this dissertation uses a triangulation approach, where resilience, empowerment, and forced migration concepts are thoroughly integrated into all three papers. The first paper identifies living difficulties and resources in each location and examines their associations with the mental health and psychosocial wellbeing of Syrian refugees. The second paper explores Syrian refugees' sources of resilience from a socio-cultural perspective and their conceptualizations of mental health. Finally, the third paper seeks to understand changes in gender roles and dynamics among Syrian refugees after their displacement through the application of the theories of resilience, empowerment, and forced migration. Overall, findings suggest that the local and structural circumstances, socio-cultural factors, and everyday experiences of Syrian refugees must be recognized to develop culturally congruent and gender-sensitive interventions for Syrian refugees in post-resettlement contexts. Additionally, there is an immediate need to find solutions for the legal status issues of Syrian refugees in Turkey and to change the discriminative rhetoric against refugees at the policy level in the United States, in order to provide a supportive and psychologically safe environment for this population. |
