摘要

Mental health outcomes of the live-in migrant care workers are related to several social and personal factors. The current research explores the connection among perceived social support (PSS), resilience, and mental health status among the studied population. An online Google form was circulated to collect the data for the study through WhatsApp and Facebook. A total of 73 migrant live-in care workers aged 18 years and above were recruited through snowball sampling. The finding of the study suggests that PSS is an important factor in the mental health of live-in migrant care workers. There is no indication of significant mediational effect of resilience in explaining the significant relationship between PSS and mental health.
