Abstract

To assess the academic life satisfaction of school-going adolescents, this study employed a descriptive survey method. The Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (Huebner et al., 1998) was administered to a randomly selected sample of 500 adolescents from schools in the Paschim Medinipur district. The findings revealed that life satisfaction derived from family was exceptionally high, while satisfaction related to school, friendships, and self-perception was also high. Overall, the total life satisfaction of the adolescents was found to be high. However, satisfaction with the living environment was notably low. Female school-going adolescents reported higher academic life satisfaction compared to their male counterparts.
