MURILLO MUNOZ, JAVIER e MOLERO ALONSO, FERNANDO. Relationship between Life Satisfaction and Other Psychological Variables of Colombian Immigrants in the United States. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.1, pp.15-32. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v25n1.44308.
This quantitative investigation aimed at establishing the relationship between life satisfaction (main variable) and the variables personal self-esteem, perceived material well-being, perceived group prejudice, perceived personal discrimination and ethnic identity. The sample, not probabilistic, was comprised of 171 Colombians, men and women, who reside in the United States. Results indicated that self-esteem and perceived material well-being were the variables most closely related to life satisfaction, being, moreover, the only positive predictors in the model. Expressions of prejudice did not significantly impact life satisfaction while ethnic identity showed not impact at all.
