This study answers the question of what integration attitudes Polish migrants hold towards their adaptation process into the Irish society. To investigate this problem the acculturation perspective was applied. Behavioral and attitudinal aspects of migrants' acculturation strategies were investigated. The results indicate that separation and integration were the predominant acculturation strategies for the examined sample. In relation to the participants' acculturation behavior, the separation option was most often applied, followed by the integration alternative as the second choice. Regarding the respondents' preferences for particular strategies the results are the inverse, indicating preference for the integration strategy over separation. These findings may be explained by several factors such as the participants' proficiency in the English language or their intention to stay or return to the home country.

The article describes issues relating to determinants of acculturation strategies in the context of contacts between migrants and the host society. The starting point of the discussion is the presentation of selected models of adjustment strategies. The occurrence of a particular type of adaptation is determined by different factors, which can be divided into two basic groups. On one hand there are external factors, on the other, there are the migrant’s own predispositions and attitudes. Individual determinants constituting each of those groups are subjected to a detailed analysis. At the same time, a particular attention is paid to the changeable character of the interactions between the migrants and the receiving community. The coexistence of all of the above factors leads to their mutual interrelations affecting the complexity and the dynamics of the adjustment process.
