Long-term marital satisfaction has been found to be a protective factor for immigrant couples' adjustment to immigration and integration. In this study, a mixed methodology of quantitative and qualitative methods was used to understand the resilience of immigrant couples. The couples under study experienced hardships and went through major adjustments after they had immigrated to Canada. The factors in the marital processes that lead to the couples' resilience in immigration and integration included (1) adjustment to the changing gender role relationships in the couples' marriages after immigration, (2) increased intimacy and mutual reliance in the couples' marital relationships, and (3) management of conflict and compromise of differences. The external factors that enhanced immigrant couples' resilience included attainment of biculturalism, and availability of formal and informal support networks. |
