Sažetak
Depressive disorders are often associated with poor social competence and significantly disrupted social functioning that includes interpersonal relationships, the frequency of interaction, a positive self-concept and social and cognitive skills (Stump et al., 2010). In the light of recent events of immigrant crisis and the many traumas and stressors faced by immigrants and refugees during their physical and psychological odyssey, they have been found to generally be at high risk for mental health problems (Keyes, 2000), especially depression and anxiety disorders, particularly post- traumatic stress disorders (Fox, Burns, Popovich, & Ilg, 2001). The aim of this paper is to observe and evaluate the social competence of patients diagnosed with depression taking into account their views and perceptions of their own social competence. The study included 100 participants. A part of the sample is formed by patients who were hospitalized at University Psychiatric Hospital Vrapče at the time of the survey. The other part of the sample involves patients who were engaged in the program of daily hospitals and social therapy program in the context of outpatient treatment. The results point out the need of strengthening social competence in different contexts similar to the needs of immigrants and refugee groups. The third phase of treatment of immigrants and refugees involves helping the refugee family maintain communication and liaison with the appropriate social services and mental health who help them in the process of adaptation and acculturation into the new host community (Guarnaccia & Lopez, 1998). Socal competence plays an important role in the process of adaptation and prevention of mental health problems, including depression, among immigrants and refugees. Taking all this into account there is a need for practitioners to design contextually appropriate services for mental health support and strengthening of protective factors for empowering social competence of immigrants and refugees.
