Abstract:
The objective of this research project was to understand how young immigrants adjust to their new socio-cultural context, and to contribute to the existing understanding of the social phenomena of acculturation, on the example of the Polish immigrant teenagers in Ireland. This included exploration of tlie transnational migration and socio-cultural adjustment from Polish parents and key informants' perspectives. The main aim of the research was to ascertain what it is like to be a Polish immigrant teenager in Ireland. The research was conducted by using the qualitative multi-actor longitudinal design that combined qualitative interviews with standardised measurements in order to examine the acculturation process.
