dc.description.abstractPakistan was badly hit by terrorists in the last two decades. FATA was the home town of local terrorist as well those from abroad. Pakistan had to take action against them under local and international pressure. This study explored psychological effect of war on terror on FATA IDPs who were camped at Dera Ismail Khan. DASS 42 was used to measure depression, anxiety, and stress ( Lovibond & Lovibond, (1995) among IDPs. Further, the participants were given a questionnaire based on the difficulties they faced, their level of satisfaction, how much help they got, and whether they lost family members during military operation and displacement. A sample of 80 male students of 21 -34 years was recruited from Gomal University of Dera Ismail Khan by convenient sampling technique, to provide answers to the questionnaires. Participants were divided into two groups: those who had faced loss of life in family during military operation and displacement and those who did not have such experience. People who faced loss of life in their family had higher and significant level of depression, anxiety and stress than those who did not face loss of life in family. On a response from a questionnaire 3 groups of IDPs were compared on stress, anxiety and depression. Those who got sufficient government support, those who thought they received just average government support and, those IDPs who perceived no government support. Result of one way ANOVA indicated there was a statistically significant difference between groups on depression and stress, but not on anxiety. Overall, the IDPs were greatly perturbed and dissatisfied with the life at camps and suffered highly in health and mental wellbeing as displaced peopleen_US
