In the immigration example, a professional who moves to another country and works at a much lower-skilled job demonstrates which mobility?

The situation illustrates downward mobility. The professional’s status and prestige drop because they move to a much lower-skilled job in a new country, lowering their position in the social hierarchy and likely their income and recognition. This is about a change in one’s own social position, not about comparing generations (intergenerational) or moving to a job with similar status (horizontal). It’s not upward mobility because the status decreases rather than increases.
