Abstract
Relación entre la gratitud y la satisfacción con la vida en una mues-
tra de Estudiantes Españoles: El papel moderador del género.
Resumen: El presente estudio pretende examinar la relación entre la grati-
tud y la satisfacción vital en una muestra de estudiantes universitarios es-
pañoles. En esta investigación se utilizó la escala de Gratitud (GQ-6;
McCullough et al., 2002) y la escala de Satisfacción con la vida (SWLS; Diener
et al., 1985). Los datos, del análisis de regresión lineal, mostraron que la
gratitud predice la satisfacción con la vida (en el bienestar físico y psicoló-
gico). Por otro lado, en la relación entre ambos términos, se encontraron
diferencias de género. Al final del trabajo, se exponen unas conclusiones y,
también, se discuten las limitaciones del presente estudio
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between gratitude and life satisfaction among university students in Spain. The pre- sent study seeks to assess gratitude by means of a self-report Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6; McCullough et al., 2002) and Life Satisfaction scale (SWLS; Diener et al., 1985). Using a multiple linear regression analysis, the relationship between life satisfaction and gratitude is analyzed. The results suggest that gratitude significantly predicts life satisfaction (on psychologi- cal and physical well-being), while on the other hand, differences exist with regard to gender in the relationship between gratitude and life satis- faction. The significance and limitations of the present findings are dis- cussed
