Attitudes towards Migration and Society in Ukraine
2025

The book presents the Questionnaire in English and Ukrainian as well as description of main concepts used in a study of attitudes towards internally and externally displaced persons in Ukraine during the war. The Questionnaire was used to analyze the impact of mass forced migration of Ukrainians caused by a full-scale invasion of Russia on February 24, 2022 on democracy related attitudes and solidarity. The study covers relation between national identity, various aspects of patriotism, emotions related to group affiliation, level of trust in institutions, civil freedoms, religiosity, values and attitudes towards internally and externally displaced persons. The Questionnaire presented in the book was used in a quantitative survey conducted among students of the specialties “Law”, “Economics” and “Psychology” of Oles Honchar Dnipro National University and Alfred Nobel University (Dnipro). In total, about 500 valid answers were collected using Qualtrics. The research was conducted within the sub-project “Attitudes to Migration and Society in Ukraine” which is part of the NCCR – on the move as well as the RESONET projects funded by Swiss National Science Foundation. The concepts described in the book will contribute to deepening theoretical explanations of socio-psychological mechanisms that form attitudes and behavior in periods of overlapping crises, as well as development of effective strategies for integration and support of displaced persons in society. The Questionnaire presented in the book can be useful for social psychologists in Ukraine and internationally for conducting similar research.
