Summary Depressive symptoms among Turkish and Moroccan migrants in the Netherlands: the impact of disintegration and locus of controlPrevious research showed that especially Turkish and Moroccan migrants in the Netherlands run a higher risk of experiencing
symptoms of a depressive disorder than indigenous Dutch people. In this study we aim to explain why some Turkish and Moroccan migrants experience these symptoms of depressive disorder to a higher degree than other members of these groups. We used cross-sectional data from the Dutch Life Course
Study (Nederlandse Levensloop Studie). Although one indicator of social disintegration, experienced loneliness, appeared to be the most important predictor for symptoms of a depressive disorder among these migrant groups, indicators of economic and psychological disintegration were also clear
predictors for these symptoms. However, psychological disintegration, which we theorized to be the final stage of integration and therefore serves as a mediator, was unable to explain the relationships of economic and social disintegration with depressive symptoms. Moreover, taking the locus
of control into account, appeared to provide important nuances for interpreting these effects: for those who experience more control over their lives, disintegration in the domains mentioned is less strongly linked with depressive symptoms than for those who experience less control over their
lives.

Abstract Scholarly attention for the position of older Moroccan and Turkish migrants has been rising in recent years. The focus lies on their relatively high vulnerability, as compared to non-migrant older Dutch their financial situation and living conditions are less comfortable
and they have more physical and psychosocial health problems. Still, they have benefited from taking the step to migrate. Compared to age peers in the home country they are more prosperous and have access to better medical care, their (grand)children can look forward to a better future, and
there is more space for personal freedom here. Moreover, the general picture of vulnerability does not do justice to the many older Moroccan and Turkish migrants who do have the right resources to grow old in a resilient manner. There is also increasing attention for the best type of care
for those who need it the most. The dominant norm within the Moroccan and Turkish communities of children being their parents' caregivers is increasingly clashing with the busy professional and family lives of the informal carers. One has to learn to accept that informal care is not
always the only good or even the most suitable type of care. The current problem is that although there are culture-specific and multicultural (residential) care facilities, these are not enough to meet future care demands. Structurally fostering cultural sensitivity in regular care institutions
is really needed too. A hallmark showing that migrant-friendly policies are being implemented can speed up this process.

In the article success factors in the school careers of second generation youth in the Netherlands are discussed. Sociologist specializing in educational studies put the emphasize on the low social-economic position of the Moroccan en Turkish parents. In the analyses of school success the social-economic position of the parents can't explain the differences in school success within the group of second generation youth. Based on the qualitative research a alternative explanation is presented for school success. Using comparisons, insight is given into the differences between successful and unsuccessful pupils of the second generation. The approach starts with an analysis of the school careers of the youngsters in a attempt to isolate the key elements which determine academic results and selection within the educational system. The analysis reveals the importance of science subjects in secondary education for school success of the youngsters. The help of siblings is crucial to overcome problems in school with these subjects and overall the support of siblings is stressed as an important aspect for school success.
