description | The article presents an analytical report on the survey results of Ukrainian refugees concerning various aspects of their lives in the United Kingdom, with the aim of identifying priority areas for support. The questionnaire developed for the study is divided into two parts: the first part includes demographic characteristics (such as gender, age, educational level, employment status, and proficiency in English), while the second part consists of questions designed to examine different aspects of the refugees’ lives.
The sample comprises 74 respondents, including 60 women and 14 men. Statistical methods, including the Mann-Whitney U-test and non-parametric Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, were employed to analyse the survey data. In this study, we use the commonly accepted psychological definition of social-psychological support as a concept that describes various forms of assistance and support an individual receives from their social environment. The questionnaire categorized social support into subtypes: material (provision of resources such as money or goods), emotional (presence, listening, sharing of emotional experiences, and understanding), informational (provision of advice and guidance), and instrumental/behavioral (practical help to solve problems or achieve goals). The findings indicate that the highest priority types of support for Ukrainian refugees in the United Kingdom are instrumental / behavioral, informational and material support, whereas psychological support was identified as the lowest priority. |
