Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, scholars in the fields of refugee studies and forced migration have extended their areas of interest and research into the phenomenon of displacement, human response to it, and ways to intervene to assist those affected, increasingly focusing on the emotional and social impact of displacement on refugees and their adjustment to the traumatic experiences. In the process, the positive concept of "psychosocial wellness" was developed as discussed in this volume. In it noted scholars address the strengths and limitations of their investigations, citing examples from their work with refugees from Afghanistan, Cambodia, Vietnam, Palestine, Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, Eastern Europe, Bosnia, and Chile. The authors discuss how they define "psychosocial wellness," as well as the issues of sample selection, measurement, reliability and validity, refugee narratives and "voices," and the ability to generalize findings and apply these to other populations. The key question that has guided many of these investigations and underlies the premise of this book is "what happens to an ordinary person who has experienced an extraordinary event?" This volume also highlights the fact that those involved in such research must also deal with their own emotional responses as they hear victims tell of killing, torture, humiliation, and dispossesion. The volume will therefore appeal to practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, social work, nursing, and anthropology. However, its breadth and the evaluation of the strengths and disadvantages of both qualitative and quantitative methods also make it an excellent text for students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume study was prepared for the US Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement, under contract from the Social Security Administration. The central concept studied was refugee self-sufficiency, organized into the two major dimensions of economic and social self-sufficiency. The economic dimension included the components of labour force participation, employment, welfare usage, other support and income levels. The social dimension included components of English language ability, physical and mental health, interactions with Americans and participation in formal organizations. Separate field studies of four ethnic groups - Afghans, Ethiopians, Poles and Romanians were conducted in five locations: Los Angeles, Dallas, Chicago, Northern Virginia/Washington, DC and New York City. Volume I presents the introduction and background to the study and a brief description of the information sources and study methods, as well as the major findings synthesized by ethnic groups across all sites in which the group was studied. In Section IV, conclusions about patterns of adjustment in general deriving from the findings are illustrated with reference to the particular group. Implications for the refugee service system of non-Southeast Asians are presented in Section V. The 12 Case Portrayals are compiled in Volume II, along with a description of the context of each site of study. The volume is structured in such a way that the context of the first site is described, followed by the portrayal of the adjustment of each ethnic group studied at that site.

Book excerpt: Crossing cultures can be a stimulating and rewarding adventure. It can also be a stressful and bewildering experience. This thoroughly revised and updated edition of Furnham and Bochner's classic Culture Shock (1986) examines the psychological and social processes involved in intercultural contact, including learning new culture-specific skills, managing stress and coping with an unfamiliar environment, changing cultural identities and enhancing intergroup relations. The book describes the ABCs of intercultural encounters, highlighting Affective, Behavioural and Cognitive components of cross-cultural experience. It incorporates both theoretical and applied perspectives on culture shock and a comprehensive review of empirical research on a variety of cross-cultural travellers, such as tourists, students, business travellers, immigrants and refugees. Minimising the adverse effects of culture shock, facilitating positive psychological outcomes and discussion of selection and training techniques for living and working abroad represent some of the practical issues covered. The Psychology of Culture Shock will prove an essential reference and textbook for courses within psychology, sociology and business training. It will also be a valuable resource for professionals working with culturally diverse populations and acculturating groups such as international students, immigrants or refugees.
