Compensatory migration is a concept that may not be widely recognized within the traditional frameworks of psychology, primarily because it seems to be an incomplete term or possibly a misinterpretation. If we attempt to understand the term within a psychological context, it could be conceptualized as a process or behavior where individuals move from one place to another as a means of compensating for psychological needs or deficiencies experienced in their original environment. This could involve moving to seek environments that provide better opportunities for fulfilling unmet needs, achieving personal growth, or improving overall well-being.
