Abstract
SALAZAR SALAS, Carmen Grace. Nicaraguan immigrants in costa rica: barriers and negotiaton strategies for recreation. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.1, pp.142-181. ISSN 1409-4703.
This article presents the results of a qualitative research study aimed at knowing how the Nicaraguan migrant population recreates in Costa Rica. The study included 13 people living in the Metropolitan Area. The information was collected through interviews, observations of participation in a recreational activity and a group interview. The data were analyzed for each separate technique, and then triangulated. For purposes of this article, the results taken into account were the ones obtained in relation to (1) the intrapersonal, interpersonal and structural constraints; (2) the cognitive and behavioral strategies associated with the negotiation to counteract the previous barriers and to participate in recreational activities in Costa Rica; and (3) some of the barriers experienced by the population in this study which caused other constraints that limited its participation in various recreational activities
