The methodological basis of the research is Berry’s model of acculturation and feminist theory. The acculturation strategies and determinants of migration behaviour are analysed based on migration statistics and the results of a survey. Particular attention is paid to gender differences in adaptation strategies. The author comes to the conclusion that female immigrants use more successful strategies and have better adaptability than male immigrants., UL https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/TVGEND2014.3.KRAS
