Abstract
Los valores básicos de vida se emplean para explicar la satisfacción con la vida, siendo escasa la investigación existente centrada en estudiar esta relación con estudiantes universitarios. Es por ello, que el presente estudio pretende verificar la predicción de valores de tipo personal, central y social de la satisfacción con la vida de un grupo de 133 estudiantes españoles (108 son mujeres, 81,2%) con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y 37 años. Para ello, se utilizó el Cuestionario de Valores Básicos y la Escala de Satisfacción con la Vida. Los resultados de análisis de regresión lineales múltiples realizados indican que los valores de orientación social son predictores significativos de la satisfacción con la vida. Complementariamente, destacase que los valores sociales normativos, correspondiéndose con valores materialistas, son un predictor de la satisfacción. Valores normativos más altos se asocian con una mayor satisfacción con la vida. Los resultados hallados justifican la necesidad de conocer mejor el efecto de los valores en la satisfacción con la vida en estudiantes universitarios de cara a promover la adaptabilidad y el éxito en la gestión personal de su carrera.

Values are often used to explain life satisfaction, but little research has focus on this relationship in college students. In this study we sought to determine whether personal, central and social values predict the life satisfaction of a group of 133 Spanish college students of both sex (108 women, 81.2%), aged 18 to 37 years old. The data collection took place through the use of the Basic Values Survey and the Satisfaction with Life Scale. The results of multiple linear regression analyses indicate that social values are predictors of life satisfaction. Besides, normative values, which correspond to the materialist values, are predictors of life satisfaction. Higher normative values are associated with higher life satisfaction. These results justify the need of better understanding of the effects of life values on the life satisfaction of college students, in order to promote their adaptability and self-career management success.
