The sample of the study consists of 429 university students (224 female - 205 male) studying at the Education Faculty of Uşak
University, who accepted to participate in the research voluntarily, during 2017-2018. A correlational research model was used
in this study. In the study, the scales of Life Satisfaction Scale developed by Diener, Emmans, Lorsen and Griffin (1985) and
Life Positions Scale Moral Maturity Scale developed by Boholts (2002) were used for data collection. In the findings of the
research, it has been seen that life satisfaction is positively associated with life positions of I am OK-You are OK and I am OKYou are not OK; it is negatively associated with life positions of I am not OK-You are not OK and I am not OK-You are OK.
Also the result of the study has shown that life positions have a predictor role in university students’ life satisfaction.
Implications of these findings are discussed within the context of literature. <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Bolu Abant İzzet Baysal Üniversitesi}
