以前的研究表明,青年的生活满意度可能受到健康和某些社会经济/社会文化因素的影响,这在匈牙利这样的后社会主义国家可能很重要。我们调查了青年的生活满意度,物质主义和他们的心理健康之间的关系在匈牙利的中学生(N = 1114)的样本。研究结果显示,青少年的社会心理健康可能在他们的生活满意度,特别是抑郁和心身症状和健康行为(如饮食控制和吸烟)的水平发挥重要作用。社会经济地位自评与物质成就感呈显著正相关,物质幸福感与生活满意度呈显著负相关。
Previous research suggests that youth's life satisfaction may be influenced by health and certain socioeconomic/sociocultural factors, which may be important in a post-socialist country like Hungary. We investigated the relationship between youth's life satisfaction, materialism and their psychosocial health in a sample of secondary school students (N = 1114) in Hungary. Findings show that youth's psychosocial health may play an important role in their levels of life satisfaction, particularly depressive and psychosomatic symptoms and health behaviors (e.g. diet control and smoking). SES self-assessment and materialistic success were positively, while materialistic happiness was negatively related to youth's life satisfaction.
