This article explores the concept of gender identity mobility and its application in feminist theory and practice. Through the analysis of historical and contemporary literature, the article reveals how the non-fixed nature of gender identity challenges traditional gender roles and identity recognition. This study uses qualitative analysis methods and relies on multiple case studies to explore the impact of gender mobility on women's identity politics. The experimental results indicate that accepting and understanding gender identity mobility can promote a more equitable and inclusive social structure. This study explored the effects of gender mobility on mental health, social adaptability, workplace environment adaptation, educational pathways, and career choices through four experiments. In the psychological health impact study experiment, the mean of the high gender mobility group on the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) was 24, significantly higher than the mean of the low mobility group of 16. On the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the mean of the high group was 22 and the low group was 14. In the study of social adaptability experiments, it was observed that the group with high gender mobility had an average score of 75 in terms of social adaptation. In the workplace adaptation experiment, the mean of the high mobility group was 80, while the group with lower gender mobility scored 70. In the final experiment exploring education and career choices, groups with high gender mobility exhibited a wider range of diversity. From the above data, it can be seen that high gender mobility will have a greater impact on individual performance in multiple areas of life.

“…Further, this lower utilization may also stem from a perceived lack of cultural sensitivity and adaptation in nursing homes for minority patients such as linguistic barriers and limited use of interpreters, different food habits, and limited opportunities to perform religious practices [14,21,22]. However, it is important to stress that the utilization of and attitudes towards public care services for migrants can be influenced and changed as a result of exposure to the culture of the receiving country [23]. Thus, utilization changes over time, that is, the longer the residency, the higher the use of public care services [24].…”

Informal caregiving can have detrimental consequences for physical and psychological health, but the impacts are highly heterogenous. A largely ignored question is whether these impacts differ with migrant backgrounds, and whether caregiving and a migrant background combine to create double jeopardy. We explored these questions using large-scale data that allows stratification by sex, regional background, and types (inside vs. outside of household) of caregivers. We used cross-sectional 2021 data collected from two Norwegian counties as part of the Norwegian Counties Public Health Survey (N = 133,705, RR = 43%, age 18+). The outcomes include subjective health, mental health, and subjective well-being. The findings show that both caregiving, especially in-household caregiving, and a migrant background relate to lower physical–psychological health. In bivariate analysis, non-Western caregivers, women particularly, reported poorer mental health and subjective well-being (but not physical health) than other caregiver groups. After controlling for background characteristics, however, no interaction exists between caregiver status and migrant background status. Although the evidence does not suggest double jeopardy for migrant caregivers, caution is warranted due to the likely underrepresentation of the most vulnerable caregivers of migrant backgrounds. Continued surveillance of caregiver burden and distress among people of migrant backgrounds is critical to develop successful preventive and supportive intervention strategies for this group, yet this aim hinges on a more inclusive representation of minorities in future surveys.

This article investigates the issue of migration success achieved by Poles settling in Berlin and London between the 1980s and 2018. We focus on the migration wave that took place after Poland’s accession to the European Union in 2004. We show different ways in which migrants understand their new situation in the light of their integration, daily life, and well-being or satisfaction in the context of migration success. We analyse the similarities and differences of approaches to the new life in London and Berlin explicated by Polish migrants. In doing so, we pay attention to several important characteristics and processes related to the integration of Polish migrants into the metropolitan environments of Western Europe.
