A new survey by the University of Haifa revealed that 66 percent of all Israeli parents are reporting symptoms of depression over the war that broke out following the October 7 attack by Hamas.
The survey sought to examine how parents are coping with their own and their children’s feelings triggered by the war, and how these two factors are related to parental psychological distress as well as to children’s behavioral and emotional difficulties. Six hundred respondents participated in the study.
