| Popis: | International migration has been extensively studied in the second half of the century, but mainly from economic, demographic, sociological and cultural-anthropological viewpoints. Psychologists have shown somewhat less interest in the issue, focusing on acculturation and adjustment problems of migrants. With the globalization and acceleration of migration at present, the authors argue, psychologists should also get more involved in better understanding the "migrant personality". They propose a model of the motivational structure of emigrants. This model was tested with 1,050 college students in three Central/East European countries: Albania, the Czech Republic and Slovenia. As predicted, it was found that students who want to emigrate have higher achievement and power motivation than students who do not want to emigrate. If this pattern is confirmed in other studies, this could have a significant effect on migration policy and research. Međunarodne migracije su se sveobuhvatno proučavale u drugoj polovici stoljeća, ali većinom s ekonomskog, demografskog, sociološkog i kulturno-antropološkog gledišta. Psiholozi su pokazali manje interesa za ovu temu, usredotočujući se na akulturaciju i probleme prilagodbe kod migranata. Sa sadašnjom globalizacijom i ubrzanjem migracije, tvrde autori, psiholozi bi se također morali više angažirati u boljem razumijevanju "migrantske osobnosti". Oni predlažu model motivacijske strukture emigranata. Taj je model testiran na 1.050 studenata u tri srednjo/istočnoeuropske zemlje: Albaniji, Češkoj i Sloveniji. Kao što se pretpostavljalo, rezultati su pokazali da studenti koji se žele iseliti imaju veća postignuća i motivacijsku volju nego oni koji to ne žele. Ako se taj uzorak potvrdi i u drugim istraživanjima, to bi moglo imati znatan učinak na migracijsku politiku i istraživanje. |
