Abstract

"We surveyed 116 families of the Santa Carolina housing project in Santiago, Chile, approximately 8 months after the March 3rd, 1985 Child earthquake. Our goals were to assess the general mental health impact of the earthquake; to document post-earthquake relocation patterns; and to explore the potential relationship between relocation and mental health."
