The healthy psychological development in adolescence depends on basicly how they view themselves, their lives, their relations and their economic statues which may differ by sex. The aim of this research was to examine the extent to which self-efficacy beliefs may serve as predictors of life satisfaction in adolescents in a Turkish sample. Moreover, the effects of gender and perceived socio-economic status were investigated because literature shows contradictory results about their effectiveness on both self-efficacy and life satisfaction in adolescence. The data was gathered by The Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Children and The Satisfaction with Life Scale with a questionnaire. Participants consisted of 444 adolescents from different schools, 207 girls and 237 boys, in Izmir, Turkey. Findings indicated that academic, social and emotional self-efficacy are important predictors of life satisfaction in adolescents. Self-efficacy explained 45% of the variance of life satisfaction of Turkish adolescents. According to gender, results showed significant differences in emotional and general self-efficacy while there were no significant differences in life satisfaction, academic and social self-efficacy. Results also showed that adolescents who perceive higher socio-economic status indicated higher social and general self-efficacy, higher life-satisfaction as well. As a conclusion, self-efficacy is an important predictor of life satisfaction; gender is effective on emotional and general self-efficacy; perceived soscio-economic level is effective on both self-efficacy and life satisfaction in Turkish adolescents. |
