In this research we explore several aspects of quality of life in young people, working with factors such as self-esteem, locus of control, perceived social support, values, and so on. We examine the correlations among factors that influence the values and life satisfaction of adolescents aged 12-16. Furthermore, we analyze the data obtained from the children, on the one hand, and their parents, on the other, we explore the relationships between the factors and we consider the agreements and discrepancies between the responses of parents and their offspring.
En esta investigación profundizamos en algunos aspectos de la calidad de vida entre los jóvenes a partir de factores como la autoestima, la percepción de control, el apoyo social percibido, los valores, etc. Se analizan las correlaciones entre factores que influyen en los valores y la satisfacción vital de los adolescentes entre los 12 y los 16 años. Se realiza un análisis exhaustivo de los datos obtenidos de los chicos y chicas por una parte, y de sus progenitores por otra, y se exploran las relaciones entre los factores y se analizan las concordancias y discrepancias de las respuestas de unos y otros.
