Abstract
Over the years, there has been an increase in the number of Indonesian citizens migrating to different parts of the world. Migration is the process whereby people move from one part of the world to another in order to take up permanent or semi-permanent residence. Semi-permanent residence indicates that these immigrants might someday return back to their country of origin. Several studies have shown that there are significant differences in the psychological well-being and hardiness in migrants. Psychological well-being is a concept that includes many dimensions of quality of life such as subjective, social and psychological dimensions that can be measured using Ryff Scales of Psychological well-being (1995) [11]. Whereas hardiness emerged from an existential theory of personality that was developed by Kobasa (1979). Within this study it has been found that psychological well-being and hardiness are positively correlated (r = .617, p < .01). However, there is no significant difference between participants living abroad and their scores on psychological well-being as well as hardiness
