AB  - Over the years, blatant expressions of discrimination have been replaced by more subtle ones. As such, counselling psychology introduced the concept of microaggressions to study manifestations of subtle prejudice from the target´s perspective. Although microaggressions have been widely studied among ethnic minority groups, little has been done to understand the effect that these everyday subtle stressors may have on the psychological acculturation process for first-generation immigrants. By proposing a conceptual model which differentiates between subtle and blatant forms of discrimination and integrates social psychological concepts and theories about acculturation, stress, and intersectionality, this project aims to examine in a series of qualitative and quantitative studies a) how subtle (vs. blatant) discrimination manifests itself and affects the psychological acculturation process of first-generation adult immigrant women coming from the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) in Portugal, and b) how these immigrant women cope with it in (mal)adaptive ways over time.
