In the present research, we examined the use and its influence of social networking applications on the process of young immigrants' acclimatisation in Israel, given the widespread use of such applications by children, adolescents, and young people to maintain contact with those who remained in their country of origin. This is a mixed-method study. A total of 551 participants from Israel completed questionnaires, of whom 110 were also interviewed. Interviewees were asked to clarify the quantitative findings to help gain in-depth understanding of the factors affecting acclimatisation. The semi-structured interviews covered all the topics included in the research questionnaires. The interviewees wanted to share positive and negative experiences they lived through, and some provided detailed descriptions. The study found that participants feel that communication alleviates the sense of longing, enables intimate discourse, sentiment sharing, release of anger, and relief of frustration. The use of web applications encourages significant interactions with those who remained in the country of origin, but to a certain extent causes social isolation in the new country.

移民儿童,青少年和年轻人使用社交网络应用程序(SNA)来保持与原籍国的联系:使用特征和习惯

在当前的研究中,我们考虑了社交网络应用程序在以色列年轻移民适应过程中的使用及其影响,并考虑到儿童,青少年和年轻人广泛使用此类应用程序来保持与留在以色列的人的联系。他们的原籍国。这是一项混合方法研究。以色列共有551名参与者填写了问卷,其中110名也接受了采访。受访者被要求澄清定量发现,以帮助您深入了解影响适应的因素。半结构化访谈涵盖了研究问卷中包含的所有主题。受访者希望分享他们所经历的积极和消极的经历,其中一些人提供了详细的描述。该研究发现,参与者感到交流减轻了渴望感,使人们可以进行亲密的对话,分享情感,释放愤怒并减轻挫败感。Web应用程序的使用鼓励了与留在原籍国的人们的重要互动,但在一定程度上导致了新国家的社会隔离。
