Abstract:
This study enhances the understanding of resilience in forced migration through a psychological lens, highlighting the importance of identifying resilience determinants and evidence-based interventions. By fostering resilience, policymakers and practitioners can support the well-being and adaptive capacities of forcibly displaced Ukrainians, promoting psychological recovery, social integration, and positive long-term outcomes for affected individuals and communities. To determine the key resilience indicators, survey data were collected in 2023 from n = 502 Ukrainian refugees living in the U.S. (M age = 27 years). Individuals reported various psychological factors and cultural experiences, revealing high resilience and low-stress tolerance among forced Ukrainian migrants in the U.S., along with a strong correlation between their adopted acculturation strategies and their resilience and levels of traumatization.
