Types of social and psychological adaptations of women married with foreigners

<p style="text-align: justify;">The paper presents the results of the final, empirical stage of a study of the socio-psychological adaptation of women who married foreigners. The sample consisted of 145 women who moved to a new country due to marriage. It is noted that the socio-psychological adaptation of migrants has a complex, non-linear structure and is associated with the characteristics of adaptability and maladaptiveness of the individual. The results of the conducted research allowed us to identify four types of social and psychological adaptation of women married to foreigners. The obtained types can correspond to both the typology of lifeworlds by F.E. Vasilyuk and the typology of migrants by J. Barry: infantile (marginalization), rational (assimilation), value (separation) and creative (integration). At the same time, the typology of migrants can act as a special case of the typology of lifeworlds. The diagnostic method for determining the type of socio-psychological adaptation of women who moved to a new country due to marriage is the C. Rogers and R. Diamond socio-psychological adaptation questionnaire edited by A.K. Osnitsky, with adjustments for the specifics of the social group being studied.</p>
