Bu çalışma, İstanbul’daki Süryani-Suriyeli mültecilerin n = 171, %70,2 erkek, ortalama yaş 31,08 iki ayrı zaman dilimindeki genel sağlık durumlarını tanımlamayı amaçlamıştır. Çalışmada “Hasta Sağlığı Ölçeği PHQ ”, “R-COPE Kısa Formu”, “Genel Özyeterlilik Ölçeği GSE ”, “Connor-Davidson Psikolojik Dayanıklılık Ölçeği CD-RISC ”, “Birinci Basamak Post Travmatik Bozukluk Ölçeği PC-PTSD ” gibi ölçme araçları yanında bazı sağlık maddeleri de kullanılmıştır. Daha önce bir çeşit travma geçirmiş katılımcıların %52,4’ünün %23,4’ünde “Travma Sonrası Stres Bozukluğu TSSB ” kriterleri görülmüştür. Kişinin kendi bedensel sağlık düzeyi p < .001 , kendi psikolojik sağlığı p < .05 ve PHQ puanları TSSB ile istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır. Kadınlar, kendi bedensel sağlıklarını p < .01 ve kendi psikolojik sağlıklarını p < .01 erkeklerden daha kötü olarak değerlendirmişlerdir. Eşleştirilmiş Örneklemler t-Testi neticesinde, Zaman 1’den Zaman 2’ye Pozitif R-COPE p < .08 için manidar bir artış, Negatif R-COPE için bir azalma p < .05 ve GSE için bir de bir artış p < .08 görülmüştür. Eşleştirilmiş örneklemler t-Testi, PHQ p < .01 ve GSE p < -.01 için anlamlı bir cinsiyet farkı göstermiştir. Sobel Testi kullanan bir arabulucu rolü, pozitif dinî başa çıkma stratejilerinin erkek katılımcıların kendi psikolojik iyi oluşlarına yönelik değerlendirmelerini geliştirerek erkeklerde semptomları azalttığını göstermiştir p < .001 .
