Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, an analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearsoncorrelation analysis, and multiple regression with the data of 3,014 married female immigrants. Results: Multiple regressionanalysis showed that demographic factors (age, education level, nationality, period of residency in Korea,and residential area), socio-economical factors (monthly family income, employment, support from the governmentfor basic living, and Medicaid), social support factors (marital conflict, satisfaction with family relationships, someone to talk about self or family matters, meeting with homeland friend, and participation in community meeting), andimmigration factors (life satisfaction, experience of social discrimination, and difficulties with living and using medicalcare) were associated with perceived health status. Conclusion: It is important to pay closer attention to immigrantwomen who have low economic status, less social support, experience difficulties with living in Korea and using medicalcare.
