Abstrakt

The Satisfaction With Life Scale-Children (SWLS-C) is a self-report instrument measuring the life satisfaction of children and early adolescents aged 9–14. The present study introduced the adaptation and psychometric findings of the Indonesian version of SWLS-C. The six steps of the International Test Commission were used as guidelines for adaptation processes. Three hundred and twelve participants were recruited (63.1% girls; M = 12.52, SD = 1.54). This study assessed SWLS-C’s reliability using internal consistency, construct validity using CFA, and concurrent validity by correlating the scores with established instruments GSES, PANAS, and K-6. The findings show that the Indonesian version of SWLS-C has good reliability and construct validity. In addition, the Indonesian version of the SWLS-C showed positive correlations with self-efficacy and positive affect. The scale correlate negatively with negative affect and psychological distress. In conclusion, SWLS-C is a reliable and valid measure of life satisfaction in Indonesian children and adolescents.
