Project Description: (in 250 words)

Life satisfaction is a bit more complex than it seems;

the term is sometimes used interchangeably with happiness,
but they are indeed two separate concepts. Life satisfaction
is the evaluation of one’s life as a whole, not simply one’s
current level of happiness. ”Life satisfaction is defined as
a perception of being happy with one’s own life and a belief
that one’s life is on the right track. To date, our
understanding of how life satisfaction relates to youth
outcomes is limited, however a recent pilot study on a
nationally representative sample of adolescents found that it
is negatively related to outcomes such as substance use,
depression, getting in fights, and delinquency and positively
related to good grades” (Lippman et al., 2012). The meaning
of happiness is “anything we pleased” (Gilbert, 2009). Life
satisfaction refers to an individual’s overall feelings about
his or her life. In other words, life satisfaction is a global
evaluation rather than one that is grounded at any specific
point in time or in any specific domain. Although related
happiness and life satisfaction are not the same thing.

Life satisfaction is not only more stable and long-lived

than happiness, it is also broader in scope. It is our general
feeling about our life and how pleased we are with how it’s
going. There are many factors that contribute to life
satisfaction from a number of domains, including work,
romantic relationships, relationships with family and
friends, personal development, health and wellness, and
others.

Life satisfaction measures are generally subjective, or

based on the variables that an individual finds personally
important in their own life. Your life satisfaction will not
be determined based on a factor that you don’t actually find
personally meaningful.

Benefits to the Learners:

The benefits that will helps elderly people in my study

is to gain information about elderly life satisfaction, if
they had been satisfied or not in their life. The aim of this
study is to investigate life satisfaction among elderly
people and give attention and importance those people like
them. It helps to determine if they have been satisfied with
the years, decade or generations they have spent in this
world, so that we can see what things they are learning while
they are still in their prime of life.
