description This study explores the subjective well-being, overall life satisfaction and perceived social support of Brazilian adolescents by analysing different models that explain the relationships among these three constructs. The sample is comprised of 1,588 adolescents (aged 12–16, 65.5% female), who answered the Personal Well-Being Index (PWI), a measure of Perceived Social Support of Family and Friends, and also an Overall Life Satisfaction single-item scale (OLS). MANOVA and ANOVA were used to assess the differences between groups, with respect to gender, it is observed that girls present lower means than boys for the OLS. Considering age, there was a significant decrease in the mean of the PWI with age. Boys present lower means of friends’ social support. Structural Equation Modelling was used to test theoretical frameworks on data. After analysing different models, the best fit model is presented using the PWI as a mediating factor between social support and satisfaction with life. The perception of social support from family and friends results to be a significant dimension of well-being among Brazilian adolescents. The importance of social support for the subjective well-being is explained by identifying how it contributes to the overall life satisfaction of adolescents.

La muestra se compone de 1.588 adolescentes (12 a 16 años, 65,5% mujeres), que contestaron el Índice personal de Bienestar (PWI), una medida de apoyo social percibido de la familia y amigos, y también un solo elemento de satisfacción general Vida escala (OLS). Se realizaron análisis de MANOVA y ANOVA para evaluar las diferencias entre los grupos, con respecto al género, se observa que las niñas presentan medios más bajos que los chicos de la MCO. Se presentó una disminución significativa en la media de la PWI con la edad. Los niños presentan medios más bajos de apoyo social de amigos. El modelo de Ecuaciones Estructurales se utilizó para probar los marcos teóricos sobre los datos. Después de analizar los diferentes modelos, el mejor ajuste del modelo se presenta con el PWI como un factor mediador entre el apoyo social y la satisfacción con la vida. La percepción de apoyo social de la familia y amigos resulta ser una dimensión importante de bienestar entre los adolescentes brasileños. La importancia del apoyo social para el bienestar subjetivo se explica por la identificación de la forma en que contribuye a la satisfacción con la vida en general de los adolescentes.PDFapplication/pdftext/htmlengPontificia Universidad Javerianahttp://revistas.javeriana.edu.co/index.php/revPsycho/article/view/2838/12119http://revistas.javeriana.edu.co/index.php/revPsycho/article/view/2838/12953Universitas Psychologica; Vol. 14, Núm. 2 (2015); 459-474adolescencia; bienestar; satisfacción de vida; soporte socialadolescence; well-being; life satisfaction; social supportRelationship between Social Support, Life Satisfaction and Subjective Well- Being in Brazilian AdolescentsRelación entre soporte social, la satisfacción de vida y bienestar subjetivo en adolescentes brasileroshttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/article10554/33506oai:repository.javeriana.edu.co:10554/335062023-03-29 14:26:18.785Repositorio Institucional - Pontificia Universidad Javerianarepositorio@javeriana.edu.co
