Key Points Question What premigration and postmigration multidomain factors are associated with psychosocial health among refugee children and adolescents after resettlement in Australia? Findings This cross-sectional study of 220 refugee children and 412 refugee adolescents found that although discrepancies in the associations of individual-, family-, school-, and community-level factors with psychosocial health were observed between age groups, premigration traumatic experiences and some postmigration family- and school-related factors and social integration factors were associated with psychosocial health after resettlement. Meaning These findings support the potential benefits of promoting family- and school-centered psychosocial care and social integration programs targeting related stressors in improving the psychosocial health of refugee children and adolescents after resettlement.
