Abstract: The research chooses 437 migrant children in Shanghai as subjects, using scale to study the influencing factors and medial mechanism in the process of migrant children's social integration. The result indicates: (1) as a risk factor, perceived discrimination has a negative effect on the migrant children's social integration (their life satisfaction and identity fusion); (2) Group permeability has mediating effect in migrant children's perceived discrimination and social integration,and perceived discrimination has both direct negative impact on social integration and indirect impact through group permeability; (3) Self-esteem can adjust the mediating effect of group permeability, whose impact rises as the level self-esteem does. Thus group permeability has adjustable mediating effect on the social integration of migrant children.

Key words: Migrant Children, Perceived Discrimination, Self-esteem, Group Permeability, Social Integration
