Abstract
Violent conflicts in Plateau State, Nigeria, have led to widespread trauma, displacement, and psychological distress, particularly among women. This study examines the effectiveness of social support in enhancing the psychological well-being of women affected by such conflicts. Employing a quasi-experimental design, 94 women residing in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps were selected and divided into treatment and control groups. The treatment group received structured social support interventions over a seven-week period, while the control group received no intervention. Psychological well-being was measured using the Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), which revealed a statistically significant improvement in the psychological well-being of the treatment group compared to the control group. These findings underscore the positive impact of social support interventions and suggest their potential for integration into trauma recovery programs. The study has important implications for educational, clinical, and trauma-focused psychological practices aimed at supporting women affected by violent conflict.
