Abstract
Migrants experience significant stresses when transitioning to find a sense of belonging (Kirmaryer et. al 2011), particularly when migration is forced. Using a survey administered to migrants in Italy (n = 92, 59 women, 32 men; M age = 36.24 years old) the present study explored relationship between psychological home, neighborhood attachment, sense of community and resilience within the migratory context. Our findings indicated that sense of community predicted neighborhood attachment significantly and positively but was not significantly moderated by length of stay. With regards to resilience, only psychological home explained more variability in resilience significantly. Implications for further research and policy makers are discussed.
