Abstract
War has an immediate and long-term effect on children's mental health. The purpose of this study was to assess post-traumatic stress and social anxiety among children of Syrian refugees in Jordan. A cross-sectional explorative design was used to collect data from 250 children of Syrian refugees regarding post-traumatic stress and social anxiety.
