Abstract

Inhabitants of two large centers for accommodation of displaced persons are described. Both groups of inhabitants have experienced a range of traumatic events, but the way in which they reacted in a psychological sense differs impressively. One group belongs to urban population, and the other to rural. According to the results of this study, the rural population seems to have much better potential for coping with stress than urban. Several characteristics which disclose differences in life style of inhabitants of those two collective centers are described.
