Table 6.
Migrant sub-group specified as study population by number and percentage of articles (n = 399).
| Migrant group | Number of articles* N (%) |
|---|---|
| Unspecified migrant^ | 299 (74.9) |
| Asylum seeker | 59 (14.8) |
| Refugee | 49 (12.3) |

| Unaccompanied asylum-seeking children | 13 (3.3) |

| International student | 9 (2.3) |
| Detainee | 7 (1.8) |
| Migrant worker | 4 (1.0) |
| Family | 1 (0.25) |
Percentages do not add up to 100% because each article could have specified more than one migrant sub-group.
Unspecified migrant was used in the studies to classify those described as international migrant, immigrant, born abroad, new entrant, foreign-born, foreign national, first-generation migrant, or by their country of birth.
