TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Iranian refugee children in Sweden: Effects of organized violence and forced migration on preschool children JO - American journal of orthopsychiatry A1 - Almqvist, K. A1 - Brandell-Forsberg, M. SP - 225 EP - 237 VL - 65 IS - 2 N2 - Using play techniques, individual assessments were made of 50 preschool children from 47 Iranian refugee families living in Sweden, while their parents were interviewed about the children's exposure to violence and separation. Reenacting play involving war and persecution was performed by 19 of the children, most of them eyewitnesses to violence. The study demonstrated ways of obtaining information directly from young children to supplement parental reports.
