Abstract
This study examined the relationship between life satisfaction and acculturation for immigrants from four English-speaking countries, adjusting for confounders including: family support, demographic characteristics, and years in the host country. Findings suggest that after adjusting for confounders, life satisfaction was connected to health status and realized expectations post-immigration.
