Article The Mediating Role of Self-Esteem in the Relationship Between Perceived Family Social Support and Life Satisfaction: a Study on Youth(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Aslan, YavuzThis study aimed to investigate the relationships among perceived family social support, self-esteem, and life satisfaction among Turkish youth, focusing on the mediating role of self-esteem. Utilizing a cross-sectional design, the researcher gathered data from 432 participants via an online survey. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling were employed to analyze the data. Findings revealed that perceived family social support positively influences self-esteem and life satisfaction. In addition, self-esteem positively affects life satisfaction. Furthermore, self-esteem served as a significant mediator, enhancing the positive impact of family support on life satisfaction. These findings suggest that interventions to enhance familial support and self-esteem may be effective strategies for improving life satisfaction. The study is important as it contributes to the academic literature by providing empirical evidence on the psychological mechanisms underlying youth well-being in Turkey, with implications for families, educators, and policymakers focused on supporting the developmental needs of young individuals. Future research should use longitudinal methods to provide a better understanding of the factors contributing to youth well-being.Article How do family influence on career choices and perceived social support affect students’ life satisfaction in Turkey?

In addition, vocational outcome expectations was a positive and signifcant predictor of life satisfaction.

By integrating this perspective, the study provides a novel understanding of how socioeconomic factors and well-being influence human rights perceptions. In addition, a revalidation study of the Human Rights in the Context of Generational Rights Scale was conducted. The research was designed as a quantitative and cross-sectional study. A total of 791 adults living in different cities in Türkiye were reached online in June 2022. The data collection tools were a demographic information form, the revalidated version of Human Rights in the Context of Generational Rights Scale, and the Life Satisfaction Scale. The collected data were analysed using IBM’s SPSS v.26 and SPSS Amos v.24 and Hayes’ Process Macro plug-in v.4.2. It was found that SES has a direct negative effect on PHRP and an indirect positive effect through life satisfaction. In addition, political opinion was found to have a moderating effect on the relationship between SES and PHRP in terms of government and opposition. These findings suggest that perceptions of human rights are influenced not only by structural socioeconomic conditions but also by subjective well-being and political affiliations. This highlights the importance of considering psychological and ideological factors in discussions on human rights perceptions, providing implications for policymakers and scholars examining social inequalities and governance. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
