There are an estimated 250 million widows across the globe, and more than 500,000 of these individuals are projected to reside in Cameroon. Despite these statistics, to date relatively little research about widows in Cameroon has been accomplished. As such, little information is available as to the mental health status of Cameroonian widows. The purpose of the current study was to examine and document post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) levels among young Banso widows in Cameroon. Findings indicated that 86% of the target population possessed PTSD symptoms in moderate to severe range. This level far exceeded a general community sample of Africa women. Select social justice and human rights implications were discussed.

The Holyoake Codependency Index is being developed to measure the extent to which a person endorses codependent beliefs and attributions. A 28-item pilot version was administered to 39 male and 268 female clients of a family counseling agency. Factor analysis, used to identify the shortest version with acceptable reliability, yielded a 13-item final version comprising three subscales (external focus, self-sacrifice, and reactivity). The subscales correspond to key themes within the literature on codependency. Scores on each subscale correlated significantly in the predicted direction with relevant measures of psychological functioning, providing initial evidence of construct validity. The 13-item scale was administered to a general community sample of 303 women and the factor structure was fully replicated. Internal consistency of the subscales ranged from .74 to .84 with the family counseling sample and from .73 to .83 with the general community sample.
