Summary/Abstract: Subjective wellbeing is probably the most popular theoretic perspective, but during the last decades the concept of life satisfaction is also getting more and more present. The Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) was conceived in order to measure general life satisfaction of respondents. Psychometric data for the scale are presented in the study but also the results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). SWLS presents a good temporal stability both in the case of teenagers and adults in agreement with other two studies (Marian, 2007) from Romania, bringing new confirmation data.
