Nearly 1.4 million asylum seekers arrived in Europe in 2015. With an unprecedented 822% increase in the number of asylum applicants, Finland experienced the largest increase in applicants than any other European country that year. In this study, we investigated asylum seekers’ experienced subjective well‐being (ExSWB) construct in comparison with their evaluated subjective well‐being (EvSWB) construct. A mixed methods approach with convergent design was adopted for the study, which combined quantitative data on asylum seekers’ (n = 181) ExSWB and EvSWB with qualitative data on the elements of ExSWB and EvSWB. The findings point at a limbus phase in asylum seekers’ livelihood transition between the borders for international protection in Finland. The Cantril self‐anchoring striving scale was used by the participants to describe this passage ritual of ambiguity. Furthermore, we also found gender differences related to coping and subjective well‐being, which supports previous findings on asylum seekers’ well‐being.

“天堂与地狱之间”:寻求庇护者的主观幸福感

2015年有近140万寻求庇护者抵达欧洲。芬兰的庇护申请人数空前增加822%,是当年芬兰申请人数增长最多的国家。在这项研究中,我们调查了寻求庇护者经历过的主观幸福感(ExSWB)结构与其评估的主观幸福感(EvSWB)结构相比。该研究采用融合设计的融合方法,结合了寻求庇护者的定量数据(n = 181)ExSWB和EvSWB包含有关ExSWB和EvSWB元素的定性数据。调查结果指出,寻求庇护者的生计在边境之间为芬兰提供国际保护,处于边缘阶段。参与者使用Cantril自锚奋斗量表来描述这种含糊不清的通过仪式。此外,我们还发现了与应对和主观幸福感相关的性别差异,这支持了先前关于寻求庇护者幸福感的发现。
