Life Satisfaction in Peruvian Emerging Adults: The Greater Impact of Socioemotional Over Financial Factors

Autores

Resumo

Research on socioemotional and financial factors associated with life satisfaction among emerging adults in Latin American contexts is limited. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the influence of emotion dysregulation, perceived social support, and financial well-being constructs on life satisfaction in a Peruvian sample. 322 emerging adults (ages ranging from 18 to 29 years) participated in this study. It was determined that perceived social support and emotion dysregulation significantly influenced life satisfaction. In the case of financial well-being, it would not be a central predictor for life satisfaction. By stratifying the sample by gender, clinical status, and age ranges, women and people aged 20 to 24 presented more predictors. A deeper understanding of the determinants of life satisfaction among Peruvian emerging adults was accomplished for future research and practical applications in enhancing well-being within this population.
