Abstract
Female war-forced migrants from Ukraine have experienced a wide range of stressful and traumatic events. Depression and anxiety as comorbid illnesses are mental health conditions that can seriously impair a person's functioning and general well-being. It is critical to comprehend how prevalent depression and anxiety symptoms are among Ukrainian female refugees in the Czech Republic (N=919, 2022) and the Republic of Ireland (N=656, 2023) as well as the risk factors that contribute to them. This cross-sectional study was conducted as part of a bigger mixed-method research project with Ukrainian female refugees over 18 years old via an online survey.
