Abstract

This study analyzes the relationships between self-concept and subjective well-being (satisfaction with life, positive affect, and negative affect). Participants were 1,250 students of secondary education (mean age=13.72, SD=1.09) randomly selected. Three assessment instruments were administered: the Dimensional Self-concept Questionnaire (AUDIM), the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWL), and the Affect-Balance Scale (ABS). The results indicated that adolescents with high self-concept showed significantly higher scores in satisfaction with life and positive affect and lower scores in negative affect. This pattern of results was the same for the total sample and for gender and educational level groups.
