Comparison of 4-week, 12-month and lifetime prevalence rates of mental disorders between the German general population and persons without German nationality who were not born in Germany (migrants).
A migration-sensitive reanalysis of the supplement survey "mental disorders" of the German Health Survey 1998/1999 was conducted. 143 migrants were compared with 3740 Germans.
Results demonstrate significantly higher 4-week, 12-month and lifetime prevalence rates of mental disorders for migrants in comparison to Germans. These differences are highest regarding affective disorders (4-week prevalence: 11.7 vs. 5.8 %; 12-month prevalence: 17.9 vs. 11.3 %; lifetime prevalence: 24.9 vs. 18.2 %) and somatoform disorders (4-week prevalence: 15.5 vs. 6.9 %; 12-month prevalence: 19.9 vs. 10.3 %; lifetime prevalence: 24.1 vs. 15.4 %).
The results highlight the importance of a differentiating examination of prevalence rates for migrants. They also serve as a basis for further investigation of the relation between migration and mental health as well as for developing a cultural sensitive health care.
比较德国普通人群与非德国出生的非德国国籍人士(移民)之间精神障碍的4周患病率、12个月患病率和终生患病率。
对1998/1999年德国健康调查的补充调查“精神障碍”进行了一项对移民敏感的重新分析。将143名移民与3740名德国人进行了比较。
结果表明,与德国人相比,移民的精神障碍4周患病率、12个月患病率和终生患病率显著更高。这些差异在情感障碍(4周患病率:11.7%对5.8%;12个月患病率:17.9%对11.3%;终生患病率:24.9%对18.2%)和躯体形式障碍(4周患病率:15.5%对6.9%;12个月患病率:19.9%对10.3%;终生患病率:24.1%对15.4%)方面最为明显。
结果凸显了对移民患病率进行差异化检查的重要性。它们还为进一步研究移民与心理健康之间的关系以及发展对文化敏感的医疗保健提供了基础。
