Öz
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between life satisfaction and hopelessness of disabled veterans and to determine whether the dimensions of hopelessness in explaining their life satisfaction in terms of socio-demographic and professional variables of disabled veterans have a meaningful effect. Satisfaction with Life (5 items) and Beck Hopelessness (20 items) were used as scales in this study. The sample of this study is 159 disabled veterans among the disabled veterans living in Turkey. All of the disabled veterans in this study are male and their mean age is 40.79 ± 6.84 (mean ± standard deviation). Considering correlation between all sub-scales of Beck Hopelessness, there was a significant correlation between feelings and expectations about the future domain and loss of motivation domain and also there was strong correlation with hope domain. The findings illustrate that there is a significant relationship between life satisfaction and hopelessness in disabled veterans.
