Att vara en äldre invandrare i ett nytt land kan påverka erfarenheten och åtagandet i människors vardagliga aktiviteter. Det är ett flertal olika faktorer som påverkar delaktigheten av aktiviteter i det dagliga livet. Förändringar i det vardagliga livet kan leda till att aktiviteter, struktur, syfte och motivation förändras eller till och med försvinner. Studiens syfte var att beskriva aktiviteter i dagligt liv hos äldre invandrarkvinnor från forna Jugoslavien men även att beskriva vad som motiverar dem att utföra de aktiviteter som de gör.Till studien valdes en kvantitativ design med kvalitativa inslag eftersom den baserades på ett strukturerat intervjuformulär med två tilläggsfrågor. Studiens resultat visade att ett flertal deltagare har förändrat sina dagliga aktiviteter och att saknad efter den sociala gemenskapen har medfört ett mer inaktivt liv. Detta i sin tur har inneburit att aktiviteter i dagligt liv har anpassats eftersom flytten till ett nytt land har medfört en högre aktivitetsnivå. För några av deltagarna har förändringen även bidragit till glädje. Resultatet visade även hur förändringarna har bemästrats genom att deltagarna har hittat nya motivationer i vardagen. Majoriteten av deltagarna har visat att de klarar av att hantera omställningen men även att de har återfått kontroll i vardagen i samband med förändringen. / Being an older immigrant in a new country can affect the experience and commitment in people's everyday activities.
