The Satisfaction with Life Scale: Psychometrics Properties in an Adolescent Sample.

Neto, Felix

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v22 n2 p125-34 Apr 1993

The applicability of the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS), developed in the United States, to another culture was assessed by investigating reliability and validity of the SWLS with 99 boys and 118 girls from Portugal. The cross-national validity of the scale and its utility with different age groups are supported. (SLD)
