RESUMEN
Objetivo. Evaluar la presencia de malestar psicológico en
migrantes no mexicanos en tránsito por México y la asociación
entre migración forzada y malestar psicológico en esta
población.
Material y métodos. Encuesta transversal a
una muestra no probabilística de migrantes no mexicanos
en seis albergues en México, de noviembre 2021 a mayo de
2022. Se evaluó el malestar psicológico con la escala PHQ-4
y se definió migración forzada como aquella motivada por
conflicto político o social, violencia o inseguridad, desastres
naturales o identidad sexual. Se analizó la asociación entre
migración forzada y malestar psicológico, ajustando por otras
variables, mediante regresión binomial negativa.
Resultados.
El 52.2% de los 2 355 participantes eran migrantes
forzados, y 51% tenía puntuaciones en el rango moderadosevero
del PHQ-4. La migración forzada (coeficiente 0.11,
p=.004), las experiencias de violencia antes de iniciar el
trayecto (coeficiente 0.16, p‹.001) y durante el trayecto
(coeficiente .09 p=.013), se asociaron con puntuaciones más
altas en el PHQ-4.
Conclusión. Los resultados confirman
que quienes dejan sus países de origen por migración forzada
experimentan más malestar psicológico que otro tipo de
migrantes. Es importante atender las necesidades de salud
mental de este grupo de migrantes en tránsito por México.
