Abstract

Two hundred seventy-four recent Soviet-Jewish immigrants to the Chicago area were interviewed and completed psychosocial questionnaires on migration history, social support, and demoralization. Older individuals, women and those with weak social support systems had higher demoralization scores. These data are presented in the context of the history of Soviet-Jewish immigration and recent reports of their adaptation to the United States.
