  • Working Your Way to Remain

    Open Access•Daisy Pollenne, Carlos Vargas-Silva•ARTICLE•International Migration•2026

    This article examines how the relationship between employment and migrants' subjective well‐being (SWB) varies according to their initial reason for migration: work, study, family or asylum. We argue that employment does not affect all migrants' well‐being in the same way and use the UK Annual Population Survey (2012–2022) to provide novel empirical evidence on this issue. First, we find that employment is positively associated with the SWB of wo…

  • The Place of Safety in Refugees’ Subjective Well-Being

    Open Access•Daisy Pollenne•ARTICLE•Refugee Survey Quarterly•2025

    References to safety feature at the heart of research on refugees’ well-being and livelihoods in destination countries. However, these tend to restrict safety to the absence of important threats, such as threats to a person’s physical integrity. Furthermore, many of these threats are considered resolved once the person seeking refuge is in a ‘safe’ country. Through semi-structured interviews conducted with refugees in the United Kingdom (UK), I i…

  • Differences in migrants’ reason for migration and subjective well-being

    Open Access•Daisy Pollenne, Carlos Vargas-Silva•ARTICLE•Comparative Migration Studies•2024•Cited by: 2•References: 19

    This article uses 2012–2021 UK survey data to explore differences in subjective well-being (i.e. happiness, anxiety, life satisfaction, and having a worthwhile life) between those born in the UK and foreign-born residents who migrated for different reasons to the country (i.e. employment, study, family reunion, and asylum). Previous literature looking at objective indicators such as employment rates and health suggests that migrants’ reasons for …

  • Understandings of Happiness and Life Satisfaction Among Refugees in the UK

    Open Access•Daisy Pollenne•ARTICLE•Journal of Refugee Studies•2023•Cited by: 2•References: 10

    Both qualitative and quantitative research draw increasingly on measures of life satisfaction and happiness to evaluate how refugees are faring in countries where asylum is obtained. However, existing evidence is limited, in that these two subjective well-being (SWB) measures are included in research as either interchangeable or distinct components of SWB. After conducting in-depth interviews with refugees based in the UK, this article presents t…
