Constraints to liberty of movement and attachment styles significantly account for well-being in three Palestinian samples.

Background: Political violence and constraints on liberty of movement can have consequences for health and well-being but affect individuals differently.

Objective: In three Palestinian samples, we sought to examine the relationship between key environmental and psychological factors and general and mental health, including the previously unexplored roles of constraints to liberty of movement and attachment orientation.

Method: Participants ( = 519) in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and Jordan completed questionnaires on constraints to liberty of movement, attachment insecurity, resource loss, experience of political violence , demographics, general healthdepression, and anxiety.
