Level of Anxiety in Tajik & Pakhtun Afghan Refugees
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The present research was designed to study anxiety in refugees with reference to their ethnicity. A sample of 200 adult Afghan Refugees residing in different Old Refugee Villages and Urban Refugee Settlements of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan was taken. It was hypothesized that Tajik Refugees would have a higher level of anxiety as compared with Pakhtun Refugees. IPAT Anxiety Scale Questionnaire (Self Analysis Form) was administered to see their level of anxiety. The results verified the hypothesis and it was found that Tajik Afghan Refugees possessed a higher level of anxiety than Pakhtun Afghan Refugees.
