| Popis: | IntroductionThis study explores the intricate relationship between migration and self-identity, emphasizing how the migratory process extends beyond geographic movement to impact individuals' cultural, social, and psychological landscapes. As migrants adapt to new environments, shifts in language, traditions, and social norms may challenge their sense of belonging and self-concept, potentially resulting in identity conflicts and reduced confidence-particularly in workplace settings.MethodsA bibliometric review was conducted to systematically analyze the literature on migration and self-identity. Data were sourced from the Web of Science database. Analytical tools such as VOSviewer and Biblioshiny were employed to map co-citation patterns, thematic clusters, and emerging trends. Additionally, the Theory-Context-Characteristics-Methodology (TCCM) framework guided the synthesis of research gaps and future directions.ResultsThe analysis identified dominant research themes such as acculturation, identity negotiation, and sociocultural adaptation challenges. Most studies focus on Western host societies and adult migrant populations. However, there is a growing yet underexplored body of work on second-generation migrants and identity development in non-Western contexts.DiscussionFindings suggest a pressing need for more inclusive research across diverse cultural settings. Practically, organizations should recognize the impact of migration on self-identity and implement culturally sensitive policies to support migrant integration. Managerial implications include promoting inclusive workplace cultures through diversity training and mental health support programs. |
