Bienestar psicológico y resiliencia de los inmigrantes en crisis sociales emergentes
Palabras clave:
Inmigración, bienestar psicológico, cuestionario global de salud-12, confinamiento, COVID-19Resumen
Este artículo compara el bienestar psicológico de inmigrantes y nativos durante los confinamientos de la primavera de 2020 en Madrid (España). Utilizamos datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de 2017, y del Panel de Hogares de COVID-19 de Madrid. En general, la población en riesgo de morbilidad psicológica llega al 60 por ciento durante los confinamientos. No se encuentran grandes diferencias entre inmigrantes ni nativos. Sin embargo, surge una dimensión en la que los migrantes son más vulnerables. La reducción de ingresos tiene un mayor impacto psicológico en los inmigrantes. La evidencia proporcionada destaca una población migrante que, incluso en circunstancias excepcionales, registra niveles de bienestar psicológico idénticos a los de los nativos. Sin embargo, la vulnerabilidad económica que enfrentan los migrantes los expone a un mayor malestar.
