Homesickness is a phenomenon of many cultures. International research deals with this topic, not so in Germany. The aim of this work is to bring the phenomenon of homesickness closer to the reader from a scientific and psychiatric point of view, to provide evidence and to create an awareness of its actuality.
Systematic literature research in the databases "Psyndex", "Pubmed" and "google scholar".
Data on the incidence in different populations vary from 20 to 90 %, which is mainly due to inconsistent definitions of homesickness and the different measuring instruments. The clinical consequences range from sleep disorders to depression and social anomalies.
Migration movements, increasing prevalence of mental illness and impairments resulting from homesickness make clear how important a modern understanding of homesickness is.
思乡是许多文化中都存在的一种现象。国际上对这一主题有所研究，但在德国并非如此。这项工作的目的是从科学和精神病学的角度，让读者更深入地了解思乡这一现象，提供证据并唤起人们对其现实意义的认识。
在“Psyndex”“PubMed”和“谷歌学术”数据库中进行系统的文献研究。
不同人群中思乡症的发病率数据在20%至90%之间，这主要是由于对思乡症的定义不一致以及测量工具不同。临床后果包括睡眠障碍、抑郁和社交异常。
移民潮、精神疾病患病率的上升以及思乡症造成的损害，都表明了现代意义上理解思乡症的重要性。
