ANDRADE SALAZAR, José Alonso e SICACHA, Maira Andrea. INDICATORS OF INDIVIDUAL AND COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH IN WOMEN-HEADED HOUSEHOLDS IN SITUATIONS OF FORCED DISPLACEMENT IN THE STATE OF QUINDÍO. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2012, vol.12, n.1, pp.61-75. ISSN 1657-8031.
This research aims to analyze the psychosocial impact caused by the armed conflict both on the individual and the community mental health of 30 women-headed households in a situation of displacement in the State of Quindío. For such a purpose, a characterization card was applied, which showed that 53% of displaced women are not able to control their emotional life, 90% do not have access to social support networks, and 70% do not have positive communication relations within the family. Also, many of them do not have permanent educational opportunities (70%) considered themselves excluded and pointed at by the Community (47%). The study indicated that 80% did not request psychological assistance and 67% think that the community favors the access to resources and services, which makes their cultural and social life active (70%).
