With over 80 million persons around the world forcibly displaced from their homes, 26.3 of whom are refugees, recent estimates indicate that the number of forced migrants has reached an all-time high (UNHCR, 2020). Already at a disadvantage, the closures of schools and key community resources aimed at combating the spread of the virus during the early stages of the pandemic contributed to further distress on the well-being of refugees. Recognizing that forced migrants are a vulnerable and underserved population and that the COVID-19 virus and the lockdowns put in place to reduce its spread severely worsened their multidimensional stressors, the authors used a qualitative narrative review with attention to the thematic analysis model to explore the impact of lockdowns on refugees' mental health by reviewing publications from April 2020 through May 2021. The review findings are categorized under three themes: (a) negative impact on mental health, (b) suggested intervention approaches/strategies, and (c) recommendations. Implications for counseling and research are discussed.
全球有超过8000万人被迫背井离乡，其中26.3%是难民，最近的估计表明，被迫移民的数量已达到历史最高水平（联合国难民署，2020年）。在疫情初期，为抗击病毒传播而关闭学校和关键社区资源，这对本就处于不利地位的难民的福祉造成了进一步的困扰。认识到被迫移民是弱势群体且得不到充分服务，以及新冠病毒和为减少其传播而实施的封锁严重加剧了他们的多维度压力源，作者采用了注重主题分析模型的定性叙述性综述，通过回顾2020年4月至2021年5月的出版物，探讨封锁对难民心理健康的影响。综述结果分为三个主题：(a) 对心理健康的负面影响，(b) 建议的干预方法/策略，以及(c) 建议。文中还讨论了对咨询和研究的启示。
