Title: OPTIMISM AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN ADOLESCENTS - BRATISLAVA SECONDARY SCHOOLS STUDENTS
Author: Eva JOMBIKOVA, Damian KOVAC
Abstract: Key words are also characterized from the standpoint of Slovak researchers; optimism from the research data of I. Sarmány Schuller and quality of life in the concept of one of the authors (D.K.). The presumed positive relation of optimism and quality of life was differentiated in the sample of adolescents of both sexes between 15-20 years (N = 321). Four methods were used: scales of life satisfaction (Diener et al.) and optimism-pessimism (Levy), a transformed Bern questionnaire of well-being (Grob et al.) and a short "flow" scale (Rheinberg - Vollmayer). Older adolescents showed a lesser satisfaction with life; girls worry more about health problems and relations with parents, teachers and friends than boys. Flow was continuously experienced only by 25%, frequently experienced by 14%. Several correlation analyses are made accessible.
Keywords: optimism, adolescents, quality of life, well-being, flow
