Subjective Well-Being of Immigrants in Italy

The intersection of several individual factors contributes to shape the subjective well-being of first-generation immigrants regularly residing in Italy. Understanding the factors associated with immigrants’ life satisfaction in the country of destination appears particularly useful for societies interested in achieving full integration of immigrants. It has many implications for the immigrants’ long-term commitment to life in the host country and contributes to alleviating social inequalities and preventing social conflicts in the immigrants’ host countries.
