Satisfaction with Life Domains and Salient Values for the Future

Abstract

Within the frame of a cross-cultural project directed to explore how New Information and Communication Technologies (Nicts) affect the life of adolescents, a study of the relationship between life satisfaction domains and salient values for the future, as well as their relation with overall life satisfaction is presented. In order to explore to what extent the different country results could be considered really crossculturally comparable, two basic topics, sensitive in any research of this kind, such as life domain satisfactions and salient values for the future, have been analyzed in-depth. A Principal Components Analysis (Pca) of each country data and of the total data set have been developed.
