Aineisto käsittelee korkeasti koulutettujen maahanmuuttajien kokemuksia kielellisestä kotouttamisesta Suomessa. Aineisto on kerätty alun perin pro gradu -tutkielmaa varten.

Aluksi vastaajilta tiedusteltiin, ovatko he osallistuneet kotoutumiskoulutuksiin Suomeen saapumisensa jälkeen. Lisäksi pyydettiin arvioimaan, kokivatko he kotoutumiskoulutuksen hyödylliseksi ja vastaavasti mikäli ei ollut osallistunut kototutumiskoulutukseen pyydettiin arvioimaan, uskoisivatko siitä olevan hyötyä. Tämän jälkeen tiedusteltiin, millainen kotoutumiskoulutus olisi heidän mielestään hyödyllistä. Kysyttiin myös onko opiskellut suomen kieltä ennen Suomeen tuloa sekä opiskeleeko suomea tällä hetkellä ja jos opiskelee, niin miten. Pyydettiin myös arvioimaan kuinka hankalaa suomen kielen opiskelu on.

Seuraavaksi pyydettiin arvioimaan omaa kielellistä integraatiota ja kuinka sujuvaa suomen kielen käyttö on erilaisissa tilanteissa. Lisäksi tiedusteltiin, miten suomen kielen taito vaikuttaa koettuun työtyytyväisyyteen ja pyrkimyksiin edetä työuralla. Kysyttiin myös, kuinka tyytyväinen on elämäänsä Suomessa, ja vaikuttaisiko parempi suomen kielen, kulttuurin ja työelämän tieto- ja taitotaso koettuun tyytyväisyyteen. Lopuksi kysyttiin vielä aikooko hakea Suomen kansalaisuutta sekä harkitseeko muuttamista eri maahan ja kuinka pian.

Taustamuuttujia ovat ikä luokiteltuna, sukupuoli, äidinkieli, koulutustaso, syy muuttaa Suomeen, työllisyystilanne, kauanko asunut Suomessa ja Suomen kielen taitotaso.
