Abstract

 
 
 The article considers the problem of success in psychological and sociocultural adaptation of adolescents in a foreign cultural environment. The differences in the process of adaptation in cultural and foreign cultural environment are defined. The influence of a foreign cultural environment on the development and formation of the adolescent's personality is revealed. The adaptation is a two-way process, as the immigrants try to integrate into the new environment and the locals try to accept them into their environment, although very often they oppose this process. That is why a special attention in the adaptation process of migrants should be paid to children: on the one hand, children with the different cultural traditions, values, stereotypes, and different social strata are present in one educational space, which sometimes prevents the establishment of optimal relationships among students. On the other hand, it is during childhood and adolescence that the higher values of a person are known and interiorized, which has an impact on the life concepts, formation of attitudes towards himself and others, development of various social roles and requirements and development of behavior patterns. It was found that in the effective process of adolescents’ adaptation in a foreign cultural environment an important place is occupied by the concept of integrative assertive behavior. The analysis of the factors and barriers of adolescents’ social adaptation is also presented; and modern concepts of social adaptation and integration of adolescents in a foreign cultural environment are analyzed. The essence of a socio-cultural adaptation is characterized. The adaptation conditions of ethnic migrants are analyzed. The reasons for the insufficiently successful adaptation and integration of ethnic migrants and their children are highlighted. The concepts of "migrants", "children of migrants" are defined, the correspondence and discrepancy between the conditions necessary for successful adaptation and integration, and the issues, which teenagers face in reality, are revealed.
