It is the dream of a young woman from a destroyed third-world country in the Middle East, suffered fear, faith persecution, and insecurity. Seven years in first-world country where everything is new, starting from nowhere and stepping through many challenges. With two little sons and husband, living the happiness, unhappiness, success, disappointments, longing to reunite with the parents, and the fear of the unknown future. Proudly, I'm presenting my dissertation, the outcome of this journey, and it would not have been possible without the contribution of several people. First, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor Dr. Jason Bakos, for his exemplary support, patience and guidance throughout my doctoral studies.
