dc.description.abstract | With increasing mobility between countries, the adaptation of immig- rants becomes a significant concern. Questions such as will the immig- rants become productive citizens who will fit well and contribute to their adopted society gain importance? In line with the expectations of a quickly adjusted and productive workforce, research has focused on the adaptations, functioning and fit of immigrants (Berry & Kim, 1988; Sayegh & Lasry, 1993; Sodowsky et al., 1991). Considerable research for example has focused on the mental health (Caetano, 1987; Durvasula & Mylvaganam, 1994; Ghaffrain, 1987; Heras & Revilla, 1994; Kaplan & Marks, 1990; Lang et al., 1982; Oksoo, 1997; Padilla et al., 1985; Szapocznik et al., 1979) and adaptation patterns of immigrants (Berry, 1980; Krause et al., 1989; Sayegh & Lasry, 1993; Smith, 1985). Much of this research has proceeded on the assumption that having immigrated to a better life and having passed the initial adjustment period, the immigrants’ improved quality of life and life satisfaction can be taken for granted. | |
