“…On the other hand, previous study found that immigrants' inability to access healthcare services equally not only affects physical health but also leads to negative mental health outcomes [45]. Previous scholars have found that health insurance can promote the social integration of migrants and have discussed the positive correlation between the social integration of migrants and the utilization of basic public health services in a broad scope (all migrants above 15 years old) [46,47]. Our study takes a more comprehensive approach to assess the accessibility of health resources and focuses on the rural older migrants.…”

Objective This study investigates the relationship between hukou conversion and the psychological integration of rural older migrants, exploring the mediating role of accessibility to health resources. Methods The 3,963 valid samples of rural older migrants included in the study were sourced from the 2017 China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS). The study established a multiple linear regression model for estimation and utilized inverse probability-weighted regression adjustment (IPWRA) method to correct for the selection bias of hukou conversion. Results Compared to older migrants with rural hukou, merit-based (β = 0.384, 95% CI: 0.265 to 0.504), family-based (β = 0.371, 95% CI: 0.178 to 0.565) and policy-based (β = 0.306, 95% CI: 0.124 to 0.487) converters have significantly higher psychological integration. These findings remain robust even after addressing the potential issue of endogenous selection bias using the IPWRA method. Bootstrap mediating effect tests indicate that hukou conversion can indirectly affect psychological integration through the mediator role of health resources accessibility. Conclusion Accessibility of health resources mediates the association between hukou conversion and psychological integration. Policymakers should enhance the implementation of hukou conversion, strengthen the health resource guarantee system, and achieve a deeper psychological integration among rural older migrants.

The current article investigates the psychological and social challenges that displaced people face in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The authors focus on the consequences of traumatic experiences, language situations, and the correlation between migrants' aggression and loneliness. The comparative study was concentrated on Ukrainians who relocated to other countries, including Po- land, Germany, and Canada, as well as those who had been internally displaced to Kyiv. The findings indicate a high level of aggression, particularly among men, associated with circumstances and a sense of loss. The factors that con- tribute to adaptation difficulties for Ukrainian forced migrants and immigrants were identified, and it was outlined how the absence of group support and social integration can exacerbate adaptation problems. The article's overall conclusion emphasises the importance of understanding the psychological aspects of dis- placed individuals' adaptation in order to overcome challenges and form a positive image of a country.
