AB  - Taking a mutuality approach to acculturation, we aim to provide robust data on the
acculturation process of refugees, an understudied group in the field. The present project
consists of two studies. Study 1 examined the social-psychological factors associated with the
adaptation of Syrian refugees in Turkey. Building on the mutuality approach to acculturation, it
considered both the role of refugees’ acculturation orientations towards culture maintenance
and contact with the Turkish society, refugees’ meta-perceived acculturation orientations of
the Turkish host society, and the impact of perceived (dis)concordance of acculturation
orientations and perceived identity threat (i.e., discrimination) on their psychological and
sociocultural adaptation. One hundred and nine Syrian refugees in Turkey completed a
questionnaire measuring the variables of interest. Contrary to the expected, own culture
maintenance was negatively related to psychological adaptation, whereas own desire for
contact was not associated with sociocultural adaptation. Refugees’ perceived acculturation
orientations from Turkish society, particularly perceived desire for contact, were positively
related to psychological and sociocultural adaptation. Finally, perceived discordance of
acculturation was negatively associated with psychological and sociocultural adaptation and
positively related to perceived discrimination. Study 2 consists of a meta-analysis, includes 35
studies that quantitatively measured perceived discrimination, acculturation orientations, and
cross-cultural adaptation among refugees and immigrants. The goal is to test (a) how strongly
these variables are related across the literature and (b) whether their mutual relationships can
be captured by a mediation model. Data are currently under analysis, relying on.robust
variance estimation and meta-analytical structural equation models.
