A theoretical and methodological analysis of the problem of social accommodation, which is considered as a modern understanding of the process of adaptation and integration of the personality of internally displaced persons, has
been conducted. It has been stated that in the modern scientific community there is a situation when traditional terminology does not fully meet the needs of researching current issues. It is emphasized that the term "adaptation" does not reflect all aspects of the life of Ukrainian internally displaced persons and their adaptation to new
conditions. Instead, the concept of "social accommodation" is more accurate and covers a wider range of phenomena, allowing people to coexist with representatives of other ethnocultures, study their traditions and moral values, while preserving their own identity.
Social accommodation is considered as a process and result, which involves the coordination of human behavior with environmental conditions, taking into account his previous experience. This process is accompanied by the improvement of acquired skills and the creation of harmony with the external environment. At the
present stage, psychological science focuses on the study of various aspects of the individual's accommodation to complex and uncertain living conditions, which is one of the key research topics. At the same time, accommodation in the context of forced resettlement remains poorly studied and requires further scientific development. It is shown that, unlike voluntary migration, which usually improves the social status of a person, forced resettlement is accompanied by a significant decrease in it, loss of property and previous sources of income Forced displacement is characterized by the lack of positive motivation to move and a change in living conditions, under which normal life becomes
impossible, and security is under threat without visible prospects for stabilizing thesituation. The cognitive component in the structure of social accommodation of forced migrants is identified and investigated. This component includes theprocesses of awareness and integration of the characteristics of the social environment that contribute to adaptation. The main element of the cognitive component is the ability of forced migrants to assess their own resources in new living conditions and to form key features of their self-image. Such characteristics
include the ability to accept themselves, a tolerant attitude towards others, emotional balance, internality, the desire for leadership, as well as both positive and negative manifestations of these features. It is emphasized that intrapersonal adaptability is an important factor in the process of psychological support and correction of the
state of forced migrants. This aspect is found in 40% of respondents who demonstrate adaptation and 60% who have not achieved it. Due to the differences between adaptation and accommodation, the ability to internal adaptation in
maladapted migrants acts both as a resource and as an obstacle to successful social accommodation. This is due to the fact that social accommodation involves not only adaptation, but also active participation in the life of local communities, taking intoaccount one's own cultural experience and traditions.
Despite support from the state and society, the displaced persons note that their level of adaptation remains insufficient. The main problems they name are social isolation, limited contacts with people who are able to understand and support them, language and dialect difficulties, and the lack of a psychological sense of
security. The individual-personal component in the structure of social accommodation of internally displaced persons has been identified and investigated.
It has been found that representatives of groups with a low level of psychological resilience tend to avoid active problem solving, shift responsibility to external factors, and feel fear of interacting with new communities. Individual priorities aimed at self-realization through specific actions are characterized by an orientation towards values such as "kindness-security-hedonism". This indicates the respondents' social passivity, their tendency to avoid responsible decisions, and their reluctance to actively interact with the external environment in stressful or uncertain
conditions. Insufficient inclination to traditional patterns of behavior that could contribute to the prevention of conflicts or their effective resolution, as well as to ensure safety and adaptation to new social conditions, is characteristic of both groups of migrants. Weakness in the ability to critically rethink one’s own views under the
influence of objective circumstances was also revealed. Among migrants with a low level of psychological resilience, such traits as emotional instability, impulsivity and low resistance to frustration are observed.
