Abstract
Abstract The aim was to test a predictive model for the life satisfaction of students in their final years of Elementary Education, considering risk predictors (exposure to violence and discrimination) and protective predictors (social skills, perception of social support, and sense of community), as well as the gender variable. Participants were 709 students who attended the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades of public schools in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Regression analyses indicated a final model, which explained 23% of the variability in life satisfaction. The data showed that personal, relational, and contextual resources function as protective factors for life satisfaction and can be promoted in interventions with students at the end of Elementary Education.
