Authors : Chader Nawel . Ben Bordi Malika .
Abstract
. This study aimed to analyze the psychological effects resulting from the experience of migration and to explore the coping strategies employed by migrants to rebuild their sense of belonging in host communities. The study addressed the concept of migration and distinguished it from related concepts, then examined the psychological effects resulting from this experience, before transitioning to the various coping strategies employed by migrants. The results showed that migration represents a significant life stressor that can lead to a range of psychological effects, such as loss of identity and belonging, which manifests in a diminished sense of connection to one's roots, cultural adaptation difficulties, and feelings of alienation. Daily stressors can also contribute to exacerbating levels of psychological distress, with the potential emergence of various disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. The study also highlighted that the reconstruction of belonging occurs through the coping strategies employed by migrants, and that the success of this process remains contingent upon the availability of supportive factors in the host society.
