Method: 229 Spanish Gypsies completed a survey of demographic data, psychological well- being, life satisfaction, ethnic identity and the individual’s inclusion of self within the ingroup. Results: (a) only level of studies is related to satisfaction with life; (b) participants with higher scores in ethnic identity reported more well-being and more life satisfaction; and (c) assessment of ethnic belonging affects more areas of well-being than does perception of closeness to the ingroup. Conclusion: objective conditions of deprivation are not related to well-being as reported by the participants; it is important to study how Spanish Gypsies value and perceive their ethnicity in order to predict their well-being and satisfaction with life.}, organization = {Departamento de Psicología Social (Universidad de Granada), Departamento de Metodología de las Ciencias del Comportamiento (Universidad de Granada), Departamento de Personalidad, Evaluación y Tratamiento Psicológico (Universidad de Granada).}, keywords = {Group identification}, keywords = {Ethnic identity}, keywords = {Self-ingroup overlap}, keywords = {Well-being}, keywords = {Spanish gypsies}, title = {The role of group identification in the well-being of Spaniards with gypsy ethnicity}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1080/00224545.2019.1634504}, author = {Gómez Berrocal, Carmen and Porras Chavarino, Carmen and Mata Sierra, Sara}, }
