Abstract

Migrants' subjective sense of home deserves further research attention. In the particular context of the United Kingdom's (UK's) decision to leave the European Union ('Brexit'), we interviewed 10 European citizens living in the UK about their sense of home, using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). In our analysis, we identified themes of (1) having more than one home, (2) making and finding a new home, (3) being permanently different from the non-migrant population and (4) a concern about feeling safe and welcome. Migration and sense of home involved building and rebuilding personal and social identity. Making a new home was effortful, and neither the old home nor the difference from the native population ever disappeared psychologically. This adds an experiential aspect to the idea of 'integration' in acculturation. Different notions of home were linked to different experiences of the impact of the Brexit referendum. We discuss the connections between acculturation, sense of home and lived experience and propose lived identity as a fruitful subject matter for social psychology.

英国脱欧公投后，作为欧洲移民在英国拥有、创造和感受家园：一项解释性现象学研究。

移民的主观家园意识值得进一步研究关注。在英国决定脱离欧盟（"脱欧"）的特殊背景下，我们采用解释现象学分析法（IPA）采访了 10 位居住在英国的欧洲公民，了解他们对家的感受。在分析中，我们确定了以下主题：（1）拥有不止一个家；（2）建立和寻找新家；（3）与非移民人口永久不同；（4）对安全感和受欢迎程度的担忧。移民和家的感觉涉及个人和社会身份的建立和重建。建立新家需要付出努力，而旧家和与本地人的差异都不会在心理上消失。这就为文化适应中的 "融入 "概念增添了一个经验方面。不同的 "家 "的概念与英国脱欧公投影响的不同经历有关。我们讨论了文化适应、家园感和生活体验之间的联系，并提出生活认同是社会心理学的一个富有成效的主题。

期刊介绍： The British Journal of Social Psychology publishes work from scholars based in all parts of the world, and manuscripts that present data on a wide range of populations inside and outside the UK. It publishes original papers in all areas of social psychology including: • social cognition • attitudes • group processes • social influence • intergroup relations • self and identity • nonverbal communication • social psychological aspects of personality, affect and emotion • language and discourse Submissions addressing these topics from a variety of approaches and methods, both quantitative and qualitative are welcomed. We publish papers of the following kinds: • empirical papers that address theoretical issues; • theoretical papers, including analyses of existing social psychological theories and presentations of theoretical innovations, extensions, or integrations; • review papers that provide an evaluation of work within a given area of social psychology and that present proposals for further research in that area; • methodological papers concerning issues that are particularly relevant to a wide range of social psychologists; • an invited agenda article as the first article in the first part of every volume. The editorial team aims to handle papers as efficiently as possible. In 2016, papers were triaged within less than a week, and the average turnaround time from receipt of the manuscript to first decision sent back to the authors was 47 days.
