In the economic aspect, while being employed negatively affects immigrant brides' happiness, family income, as expected, is positively associated with psychological well-being. However, during acculturation, immigrant brides who have stayed longer in Taiwan, especially for more than 10 years, report a lower level of happiness. Also, different types of social networks and resources may be available for them to cope with the difficulties encountered. Immigrant brides accessing professional organisations are more likely to report being 'very happy'. Finally, perceived friendliness is an important protective factor among female marriage immigrants. More interestingly, perceived friendliness plays a role in mediating the influence of economic and acculturative predictors on psychological well-being. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of Ethnic & Migration Studies is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
