A thesis is an aptitude test for students. The approval of the thesis is proof that the student has sufficient research and reporting skills to graduate but does not guarantee the quality of the research and the results of the research as such, and the thesis is therefore not necessarily suitable to be used as an academic source to refer to. If you would like to know more about the research discussed in this thesis and any publications based on it, to which you could refer, please contact the supervisor mentioned.


Abstract

The current research investigates the relationship between perceived exclusion, identification with being Turkish and Dutch, and remigration intentions of Turkish-Dutch people. A sample of 64 Turkish-Dutch participants recruited through Facebook groups, flyers, and word-of-mouth filled out the online survey. The results showed that higher Dutch identification relates to lower remigration intentions. Furthermore, an exploratory analysis showed an indirect relationship between perceived exclusion and remigration intentions, through the mediator Dutch identification: more perceived exclusion relates to lower Dutch identification, which in turn is linked to more remigration intentions. No significant relationship was found between Turkish identification and remigration intentions. This suggests that not identifying with being Dutch may be a more important predictor for remigration intentions than identifying with being Turkish. These findings provide an insight in psychological motivations that immigrants and descendants of immigrants might have for remigration.
