尽管仇外心理在当今的政治气候中变得越来越重要，但人们对仇外心理对健康的影响知之甚少。虽然一些研究表明，在当地情况下，仇外心理可能导致更糟糕的心理健康结果，但没有人试图审查已发表的文献以整合这些发现。这一综合范围审查审查了这些出版物的优势，然后综合了它们的研究结果，以提供仇外心理的全球视角。结果表明，它不仅是一种政治威胁，而且对个人及其社区的健康也有实际的负面影响。鉴于仇外心理对个人和社区健康的多重负面影响，应从公共卫生和政治角度给予更多关注。促进文化融合和理解的政策对于改善社区卫生至关重要。
Though xenophobia has become increasingly relevant in today’s political climate, little is known about the impact of xenophobia on health. While some studies have shown that xenophobia, in local contexts, may contribute to worse mental health outcomes, none have attempted to review the published literature to integrate these findings. This integrative scoping review examines the strength of these publications, then synthesizes their findings to provide a global perspective on xenophobia. The results show that it is not merely a political threat, but also has real, negative impact on the health of individuals and their communities. Given the multiple negative effects on individual and community health, xenophobia warrants more attention from both a public health and political perspective. Policies that promote cultural integration and understanding are essential to improving community health.
