Defensive national identity relates to support for collective violence, in contrast to secure national identity, in a sample of displaced Syrian diaspora members International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-03-14 Ramzi Abou-Ismail, Bjarki Gronfeldt, Gaelle Marinthe
This paper examines national identities and collective violence beliefs in a sample of Syrian diaspora members (N = 521). Most of the Syria diaspora fled the ongoing civil war and are therefore opposed to President Assad and his regime, which still control most of their homeland. It is therefore a compelling question if national identities, which remain strong in the diaspora despite displacement,

Perceived forcedness and perils of migration: Development and validation of a questionnaire for migrants in receiving countries International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-03-14 Lena Niemann, Guido Hertel
A successful integration of refugees is a key challenge for many receiving countries. Existing research advocates refugees’ levels of experienced migration forcedness and associated perils as a key factor in this process. However, a standardized measure for these experiences is yet lacking. We introduce the PMF-Mig, a new questionnaire that captures migrants’ experiences of migration forcedness and

In between Korean and New Zealander: Extrinsic success beliefs and well-being of Korean youth in New Zealand International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-03-12 Joohyun Justine Park, Gavin T.L. Brown, Jason M. Stephens
Korean immigrants have migrated to New Zealand over the past three decades in search of a happier and more balanced life. While they anticipated that their children would be integrated into New Zealand society, they have primarily settled in Korean ethnic enclaves. In this context, younger Korean New Zealanders have been exposed to and influenced by New Zealand’s national and Korean ethnic cultures

Attachment style and romantic involvement with host nationals influence migrants’ acculturation and adjustment International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-02-21 Tara C. Marshall, Chi Hong Lao
Many migrants experience cultural transitions alongside a romantic partner, yet relatively few studies have examined the relationship context of acculturation and adjustment. The primary goal of the present study was to examine whether partners’ anxious and avoidant attachment – fearing abandonment or closeness in relationships, respectively – predicted their acculturation orientations and sociocultural

“When someone is in a safe place, I believe that your mind rests” emotional security amid community violence: A cross-national study with youth in Newark, New Jersey, USA, and San Pedro Sula, Cortés, Honduras International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-02-10 Franklin Moreno, Sarah Hoegler Dennis, E. Mark Cummings, Paul Boxer
Youth are impacted by violence across multiple contexts, where prior research on youth well-being has considered community violence as a general source of risk. However, previous research has omitted the experiences of exposure by youth that involve the co-occurrence of insecurity with multiple groups in the community, such as with the police and gangs. This cross-national study examines the experiences

The spillover effect of implicit immigrant stereotypes and incidental pandemic threat International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-02-10 Maria Duque, David De Coninck, Pablo Montero-Zamora, Sumeyra Sahbaz, Tara Bautista, Beyhan Ertanir, Maria F. Garcia, Aigerim Alpysbekova, Carolina Scaramutti, Madison Laboy, Duyen Vo, Yara Acaf, Vivian Vignoles, Seth J. Schwartz
The uncertainty brought about by COVID-19 in times of mass migration adds an extra layer of perceived threat and competition for resources among host residents in migrant-receiving societies. This convergence of perceived threat potentially exacerbates implicit stereotypes about immigrants and can increase intergroup discord. We used panel data and a linear structural equation model to assess the distinct

International student-parents in UK higher education: A temporal analysis of their intersectional experiences and challenges International Journal of Intercultural Relations (IF 2.938) Pub Date : 2024-01-20 Martina Dickson, Lisa Bradley, Barbara Read
Parents studying in UK universities often face a disproportionate number of challenges compared to their non-parent contemporaries, and research indicates that they often see no real change to the amount of domestic work they have to perform in addition to their studies. For international student-parents such challenges are likely to be intensified by loss of access to extended family networks, as

Acculturation is a complex and multidimensional process that refers to the psychological process whereby individuals’ behaviours, values, and cultural attitudes change as a result of contact between two or more distinct cultures. While there is a large amount of literature focused on linking acculturation to various adaptation-relevant outcome domains for other migrant groups, there has been little

When people come into contact with members of a new/other culture, their emotions may acculturate. In support of this idea, previous research has found that the emotions of immigrant minorities who have frequent contact with majority culture members, fit the majority emotion norms better than those who have less contact. Little is known about the possibility of majority members’ emotions acculturating

Recent research finds that Muslim girls increasingly have in-group friendships in adolescence, while Muslim boys remain more open to interreligious friendships. This gender gap mirrors established findings of female Muslims’ lower involvement in interreligious romantic relationships, which is attributed to gendered religious norms. In this study, we examine whether gendered religious norms also contribute

New Zealand is a peaceful nation, but ongoing political tensions and inequities between Māori (the indigenous peoples of New Zealand) and Pākehā (the majority group of Europeans) persist as a result of its colonial history. Identifying ways to redress the enduring legacy of colonialism are therefore of critical importance. Accordingly, this paper examines data from 7017 Māori, as well as 37,233 Pākehā

An emerging literature has begun to explore the acculturation of majority-group members within increasingly diverse societies. Given the inherent power asymmetries and ethnic hierarchies that usually favor majority groups, it becomes critical to examine their acculturation process through the lens of power dynamics. Central to this examination is determining when a majority group’s adoption of cultures

Previous research has documented that economic concerns might limit the positive impact of empathy in reducing prejudicial attitudes toward refugees in Türkiye. Other research has also shown that religious conservatism might buffer negativity toward refugees. However, there has been no prior research testing whether empathizing with economic hardships would increase positivity toward refugees. In this

Language is a crucial element of the acculturation process. In immigration-receiving societies, studying the linguistic acculturation of majority groups is socially and theoretically relevant. In bilingual contexts where co-official languages have a history of conflict, the narrative of linguistic victimhood may play an important role in predicting responses to linguistically diverse immigrants.

The integration hypothesis is the proposal that individuals who engage in both their heritage culture and in the larger society (by using the integration strategy) have better psychological adaptation than those using other strategies (by engaging with only one or neither cultural framework). This hypothesis has received substantial support over the years, but it has been recently contested by Bierwiaczonek

Interacting with Indigenous parents effectively can be a challenge for primary school teachers, regardless of their teaching experience. Unfortunately, within schools in post-colonial countries, teachers often perceive that this challenge exists because Indigenous parents are hard-to-reach or unresponsive to their children’s educational needs. With the intention of dismantling these destructive colonial
