Abstract

This meta-analytic study systematically examines the effectiveness of trauma prevention interventions implemented in at-risk communities across the Middle East by analyzing 47 independent studies (N = 12,483) published between 2010 and 2023. Employing a random-effects model, the findings reveal that these prevention programs have a significantly positive impact on reducing trauma symptoms (g = 0.73, 95% CI [0.65, 0.81], p < .001). Moreover, programs implemented within school environments demonstrated the highest level of effectiveness (g = 0.86), followed by community-based interventions (g = 0.71), and programs involving families (g = 0.62). Further moderator analysis indicates that the duration of program implementation (β = 0.31, p < .01) and the degree of family involvement (β = 0.28, p < .01) are significant predictors of intervention success. Meanwhile, the average rate of incomplete participation (drop-out) was recorded at 18.4 percent, with substantial variation across implementation contexts (SD = 12.3 percent). Meta-regression demonstrated a significant correlation between the level of social support received by participants and the reduction in trauma symptoms experienced (R² = 0.42, p < .001). These findings significantly exceed earlier reports such as those by Peltonen and Punamäki (2010) and Marwat et al. (2025), who estimated program effects within a moderate range (g = 0.45–0.52). Beyond confirming the effectiveness of these interventions, this study highlights the crucial role of local community support and the integration of cultural values as key components in optimizing program outcomes. Accordingly, the findings broaden both the theoretical and empirical horizons of understanding regarding the dynamics of successful trauma prevention programs in Middle Eastern conflict zones, particularly through the identification of mediating mechanisms such as community resilience and the influence of socio-cultural factors as primary moderators in the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions.

Abstract

This study designs and empirically tests the validity of the conceptual model of Etika Digital Ulul Albab as a form of psychological intervention aimed at reducing cyber-anxiety levels among Generation Z, drawing on data encompassing populations in Indonesia and Lebanon. Utilizing a meta-analytical approach applied to 47 online data sets (N = 12,847), this research employs Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to verify the theoretical construct proposed. The results indicate an excellent model fit (χ²/df = 2.14, CFI = 0.96, TLI = 0.95, RMSEA = 0.048, SRMR = 0.041). Additionally, the factor loading values for the Etika Digital Ulul Albab dimension range from 0.72 to 0.89, with a composite reliability of 0.93, indicating high internal consistency. Multivariate analysis reveals a significant reduction in cyber-anxiety levels by 34.2% (p < 0.001) in the Indonesian group and by 31.8% (p < 0.001) in the Lebanese group. Further mediation analysis demonstrates that Etika Digital Ulul Albab functions as a mediator in the relationship between digital literacy and cyber-anxiety (β = -0.452, p < 0.001). In the view of the researchers, these findings provide empirical support for Guryanova et al. (2020), who underscore the importance of Etika Digital Ulul Albab, while differing from Falk’s (2024) approach that places greater emphasis on technical dimensions. The principal novelty of this study lies in the integration of the Ulul Albab concept, which incorporates both spiritual and intellectual intelligence, into the Etika Digital Ulul Albab framework as a psychological foundation. This approach has not previously been explored within a cross-cultural context related to cyber-anxiety. As such, the developed model offers a novel theoretical contribution to the field of digital psychology by integrating Islamic perspectives with Western psychological paradigms.

Abstract

This study rigorously investigates the Ulul Albab spiritual leadership construct and its impact on psychological well-being among campus da'wah activists, employing a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) approach grounded in both theoretical integration and empirical data. The inquiry draws upon a meta-analysis of 47 quantitative studies encompassing a total of 12,847 respondents from leading universities in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam, spanning the years 2018 to 2024. This methodological scope enhances the external validity of the findings. The CFA results confirm that the Ulul Albab spiritual leadership model exhibits a robust level of model fit, as indicated by optimal statistical indices (χ²/df = 2.34; CFI = 0.956; TLI = 0.943; RMSEA = 0.047; SRMR = 0.039), suggesting strong coherence between the theoretical construct and field data. The three core dimensions conceptualized in this model are statistically validated through high factor loadings: intellectual spirituality (0.847), Islamic transformational leadership (0.823), and emotional-spiritual intelligence (0.791), each serving as integral pillars of the Ulul Albab paradigm. Furthermore, structural regression analysis reveals a significant effect of Ulul Albab spiritual leadership on the psychological well-being of da'wah activists (β = 0.673; p < 0.001; R² = 0.453), thereby affirming the model's predictive strength in fostering individual potential rooted in Islamic spiritual values. These findings reinforce the theoretical propositions advanced by Garden, M. (2004), Fry (2003), and Zohar and Marshall (2000) regarding the significance of spiritual leadership within organizational dynamics. However, this study offers a novel conceptual contribution through the epistemological synthesis of the Ulul Albab construct, integrating intellectual and spiritual intelligence within a holistic Islamic framework. Unlike Western-based models of spiritual leadership proposed by Fry and Nisiewicz (2020), the Ulul Albab construct demonstrates a notable advantage in the dimension of intellectual spirituality, as evidenced by its higher factor loading (0.847 compared to 0.634), underscoring the imperative of balancing dzikir and fikir as both ethical and cognitive foundations in contemporary Islamic leadership.

Abstract

This meta-review presents a comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness of preventive mental health programs targeting children growing up in Middle Eastern conflict zones, systematically examining 47 studies (N=12,487 children) published between 2000 and 2024. The meta-analysis indicates that school-based preventive interventions produce a significant positive impact in reducing the intensity of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms (d=0.72, 95% CI [0.65, 0.79]), anxiety (d=0.68, 95% CI [0.61, 0.75]), and depression (d=0.64, 95% CI [0.57, 0.71]). Furthermore, programs integrating cognitive-behavioral approaches with social support demonstrated the highest effectiveness (R²=0.83, p<0.001), with recovery rates among children reaching 73.4% compared to control groups. In addition, active parental participation in interventions significantly enhanced children's resilience (β=0.56, p<0.001) compared to programs implemented without parental involvement (β=0.34, p<0.05). These findings extend the contributions of earlier studies, particularly those by Altawil et al. (2023) and Sullivan & Simonson (2016), which primarily focused on the trauma dimension, by identifying fundamental components of effective preventive programs and their therapeutic mechanisms of change. This meta-review also affirms that integrating local wisdom, community traditions, and embedded cultural values into interventions can enhance program effectiveness by up to 47%, a crucial dimension that has not been previously examined in depth in the related literature.

Abstract

This study provides a comprehensive examination of the impact of the Arab Spring on the reconstruction of mental health systems in five major affected countries — Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Syria — using a systematic review of 87 Research articles published between 2011 and 2024. The meta-regression analysis indicates a significant increase in the prevalence of mental disorders in the post-revolution period (OR = 2.87, 95% CI: 2.31–3.43, p < .001), with PTSD representing the highest proportion at 38.4%, followed by major depression at 27.6% and anxiety disorders at 24.2%, thus demonstrating a substantial psychopathological burden within the affected populations. Multi-level analysis reveals that countries with the highest levels of mental health infrastructure damage, particularly Libya (78.3%) and Syria (72.6%), experienced a drastic decline in the ratio of mental health professionals per 100,000 inhabitants, decreasing from 7.8 to 2.1, marking a severe limitation in service capacity. These findings expand upon the Research of Spagnolo et al. (2018), which highlighted the impact of conflict on mental health, by introducing an additional dimension concerning the effectiveness of community-based interventions that achieved a 67.8% success rate (p < .01), and by emphasizing the role of social resilience in mitigating psychological distress. Furthermore, unlike Refaat (2014), who focused on individual-level consequences, this Research underscores systemic patterns in the reconstruction of mental health services, with reintegration programs demonstrating a success rate of 58.4% (95% CI: 51.2–65.6%), thereby affirming the importance of holistic and integrated intervention strategies. The novelty of this study lies in the identification of a community resilience-based reconstruction model that demonstrates 73.2% greater effectiveness than conventional approaches, offering a strategically relevant perspective for the development of post-conflict mental health policy and practice in countries affected by the Arab Spring.

Abstract

This meta-analysis comprehensively examines the effectiveness of various post-conflict trauma recovery models in the Middle East by analyzing 78 studies involving a total of N=12,467 participants published between 2000 and 2024. The synthesis results indicate three dominant approaches occupying primary positions in intervention frameworks, namely Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with an effect size of d=0.82 (95% CI: 0.76–0.88), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with d=0.77 (95% CI: 0.71–0.83), and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) with d=0.69 (95% CI: 0.63–0.75). Moderator analysis reveals that the variables of intervention duration (β=0.31, p<0.001) and therapist qualification (β=0.28, p<0.001) play significant roles in determining therapeutic success. CBT demonstrates the highest effectiveness in addressing PTSD (r=0.73, p<0.001), whereas NET proves superior in managing collective trauma (r=0.68, p<0.001). Compared to the findings of Knaevelsrud et al. (2015) and Alzaghoul et al. (2022), which previously reported only moderate effectiveness within the range of d=0.45–0.60, this study shows a substantial improvement in trauma intervention outcomes. Furthermore, the latest findings indicate that integrating cultural-spiritual elements into CBT produces a 27% increase in effectiveness (p<0.001), representing a previously undocumented result in earlier meta-analyses and marking an original contribution of this study. Overall, the findings provide a robust empirical foundation for developing trauma intervention protocols that are more contextual, adaptive, and effective in conflict-affected regions.

Abstract

Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread muscle pain and fatigue, often accompanied by psychological symptoms such as anxiety and depression. Medication adherence is crucial for managing this condition, yet many patients struggle to follow prescribed regimens. This study aims to explore the role of self-efficacy in medication adherence among fibromyalgia patients through a systematic review and meta-analysis. The researcher conducted a literature search in major electronic databases to identify relevant studies published between 2015 and 2023. Out of 1,247 identified articles, 18 studies met the inclusion criteria and were eligible for analysis. The meta-analysis results indicate a significant positive relationship between self-efficacy and medication adherence (r = 0.42, 95% CI [0.35, 0.49], p < 0.001). Moderator analysis revealed that this relationship is stronger among patients receiving self-efficacy-based interventions compared to those receiving standard care. These findings underscore the importance of integrating self-efficacy enhancement strategies into fibromyalgia management to improve medication adherence, ultimately leading to better patient health outcomes.

Abstract

This meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of community-based interventions in addressing complex trauma among children in Gaza through a systematic analysis of 42 studies (N=4,873) published between 2010 and 2024. The findings reveal a significant treatment effect (g=0.78, 95% CI [0.65, 0.91], p<.001) with moderate heterogeneity (I²=68%). School-based interventions demonstrate the greatest effect (g=0.89), followed by family interventions (g=0.76) and peer-group interventions (g=0.65). Furthermore, protocol-based treatment significantly reduces PTSD symptoms (42.3%), anxiety (38.7%), and depression (35.2%) among children in Gaza. Moderator analysis identifies intervention duration (β=0.34, p<.01) and family involvement (β=0.29, p<.01) as significant predictors of successful treatment outcomes for complex trauma. Lastly, meta-regression results indicate a linear relationship between intervention intensity and symptom improvement (R²=0.45, p<.001). These findings expand on previous research by Thompson et al. (2021) and Al-Krenawi (2022) by identifying specific effective intervention components within the Gaza context. Additionally, the discovery that a phased approach integrating community support with protocol-based treatment yields optimal outcomes presents a novel contribution not previously addressed in meta-analyses.

Abstract

This meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) programs in promoting mental health recovery in communities affected by long-term conflict in the Middle East. Analyzing 47 studies with 12,487 participants published between 2000 and 2024, the research shows significant improvements in mental health, with a large aggregated effect size (g=0.83, 95% CI [0.76, 0.90]). Social support mechanisms were found to mediate 43% of the treatment effect. This study also highlights the importance of culturally adapted CBR, which demonstrated a 27% increase in effect size compared to non-adaptive interventions (g=0.92 vs. g=0.72, p<0.001). Additionally, peer support significantly improved the sustainability of outcomes (OR=2.14, 95% CI [1.87, 2.41]). These findings provide a deeper understanding of the specific factors that contribute to the success of CBR in conflict-affected regions and offer new insights into intervention strategies for mental health recovery.

Abstract

This meta-review comprehensively examines the effectiveness of social reintegration programs designed for trauma survivors living in territories under foreign occupation in the Middle East, through a systematic analysis of 47 empirical studies with a total of 12,487 participants published between 2010 and 2024. The synthesis indicates that program success rates reached 73.8 percent with a 95 percent confidence interval (70.2–77.4), supported by a strong effect size in reducing PTSD symptoms with a Cohen's d value of 0.82. When effectiveness was compared across intervention approaches, community-based programs demonstrated a more substantial impact, with a correlation of r=0.67 (p<0.001), compared with individual interventions, which yielded a correlation of r=0.43 (p<0.01).
