Özet
This exploratory study aimed to evaluate factors related with child marriage compared to unmarried status in female adolescent residents in a refugee camp in Turkey. The rate of child marriage and developmental status of offspring from those marriages were reported. A research team evaluated married female youth and their offspring for psychopathologies according to DSM-5 criteria and ascertained lifetime traumatic events among mothers. We compared the traumatic experiences and psychopathologies of married females and controls. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was the most common diagnosis in both groups and child brides reported greater cumulative traumatic experiences and elevated rates of PTSD. More than one-tenth (i.e., 15.1%) of offspring of child brides displayed developmental delays and 12.1% were diagnosed with global developmental delay.
