The present study intends to (1) analyze the differences regarding the quality of life between young foreigners and young Portuguese adolescents; (2) understand the relationship between variables related to the school context and the quality of life of foreign adolescents living in Portugal. In all, 8215 adolescents participated in this study, and only the sub-sample of 578 foreigners was considered. 50.3% are boys, aged between 10 and 22 years old. Foreign students in Portugal have a lower well-being index than Portuguese students and a worse relationship with peers and teachers. Foreign girls like school more than boys, have less difficulties in school and have a higher perception of security at this context. On the other hand, they have a lower perceived academic competence and a worse relationship with peers. The importance of developing programs to promote socioemotional skills, empowering teachers and educators, and promoting the adoption of an inclusive model in schools is highlighted.

居住在葡萄牙的外国青少年：生活质量和学校经历

本研究旨在（1）分析年轻的外国人和年轻的葡萄牙青少年在生活质量方面的差异；(2) 了解与学校环境相关的变量与居住在葡萄牙的外国青少年的生活质量之间的关系。总共有 8215 名青少年参与了这项研究，并且只考虑了 578 名外国人的子样本。50.3% 是男孩，年龄在 10 至 22 岁之间。在葡萄牙的外国学生的幸福指数低于葡萄牙学生，与同龄人和老师的关系更差。外国女孩比男孩更喜欢学校，在学校里的困难更少，并且在这种情况下对安全感更高。另一方面，他们感知到的学术能力较低，与同龄人的关系也较差。
