Grit, general self-efficacy, and life satisfaction: The mediating role of hope

WOS:000877655700001 PubMed ID:36321957This study examines the mediating role of hope in the relationship between grit, general self-efficacy, and life satisfaction. The sample of the study consisted of 485 university students (68.7% female). The age of the participants ranged from 18 to 39 (Mean: 20.85, SD: 2.30). According to the findings of the study, positive significant relationships were found between grit, general self-efficacy, hope and life satisfaction. hope fully mediated the impact of grit on life satisfaction. Additionally, hope fully mediates the effect of general self-efficacy on life satisfaction. These findings suggest that grit and general self-efficacy associated with life satisfaction can be better understood with hope. Hope can be a factor that increases individuals' resilience and general self-efficacy and is an important aspect of positive-based interventions
