Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between life satisfaction and individualistic sense of coherence (comprehensibility, manageability and meaningfulness), family sense of coherence, self esteem and to examine which variables (the sense of coherence, family sense of coherence and self esteem) the best predictor of life satisfaction. The participants of the study were 250 female (64%), 143 male (36%) total 393 university students. The age range was 19.45. To collect data Life Satisfaction Scale, Sense of Coherence, Family Sense of Coherence and Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale were used. After collecting data Pearson Momentum Correlation and Stepwise regression statistic analysis were applied. The results indicated that there are significant positive moderate and relatively strong correlations between life satisfaction and individualistic sense of coherence, family sense of coherence and self esteem. The findings of this study supported Antonovsky’s theoritical frame. In addition the stepwise regression analyses indicated that comprehensibility (cognitive dimension) dimension of sense coherence was the best predictor of life satisfaction. The other variables were family sense of coherence, self esteem, manageability and meaningfulness respectively. All variables explained 40% of total variance.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu arastırmanın amacı yasam doyumunun yordanmasında bireysel bütünlük duygusu (anlasılabilirlik, anlamlılık, yönetme), aile bütünlük duygusu ve benlik saygısı degiskenlerinin ne düzeyde katkıda bulundugunu belirlemektir. Arastırmanın çalısma grubunu Çukurova Üniversitesi Egitim Fakültesine devam eden 250 kız (%64), 143 erkek (%36) toplam 393 üniversite ögrencisi olusturmustur. Arastırmaya katılan deneklerin yas ortalaması 19.45’tir. Arastırmada veri toplamak amacıyla Bireysel Bütünlük (Tutarlılık) Duygusu Ölçegi , Aile Bütünlük Duygusu Ölçegi , Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Envanteri ve Yasam Doyumu Ölçekleri uygulanmıstır. Arastırmadan elde edilen verilerin analizinde Pearson Momentum Korelasyon ve Asamalı Regresyon teknikleri kullanılmıstır. Arastırmanın bulguları Antonovsky’nin belirledigi kuramsal yapıyı destekler niteliktedir. Arastırma bulguları beklenildigi yönde yasam doyumu ile bireysel, ailesel bütünlük duygusu ve benlik saygısı arasında olumlu orta ve göreli olarak güçlü düzeyde iliskiler oldugunu göstermektedir. Yasam doyumunu yordamaya iliskin ele alınan tüm degiskenler toplam varyansın %40’ını açıkladıgı görülmüstür. Yasam doyumunu yordamaya en fazla katkıda bulunan degiskenin bireysel bütünlük duygusunun alt boyutu olan anlasılabilirlik boyutu oldugu bunu sırasıyla aile bütünlük duygusu, benlik saygısı, yönetilebilirlik ve anlamlılık degiskenlerinin izledigi saptanmıstır.
