Abstract
A total of 183 elementary school students were administered the Self-Description Questionnaire-1 (SDQ-1) and the Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) in order to explore the relationships between self-concept domains and global life satisfaction in pre-adolescent children. Results suggested that children differentiate global life satisfaction from self-concept domains. Also, SDQ-1 domains related differentially to SLSS ratings. Consistent with findings with adolescents (Dew and Huebner, 1994), the Parent Relations domain was the strongest predictor of global life satisfaction for these pre-adolescents. The findings provide additional support for the meaningfulness of the life satisfaction construct with children as well as the multidimensionality of children's subjective well-being.
