Abstract

ABSTRACT Most international immigrants have mental health problems because of perceived discrimination. This research aims to analyze the possible mediating role of self-esteem in the impact of perceived discrimination on the mental health problems of the four most extensive South American immigrant nationalities in Chile. It involved 772 immigrants who have been living in this country for longer than a year. The results indicate that self-esteem would play a mediating role in two nationalities. We conclude by considering the importance and implications of self-esteem as a variable for intervention from social work in the immigration field.
