abstract="The purpose of this study is to further assess the international relevance of an ecological, relationship-based model of children's subjective well-being with samples of 10-year-old children from the United States (n = 502, Mage = 10.66, SD = .55) and 10 other countries: Algeria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Israel, Nepal, Romania, Rwanda, South Korea, and Uganda (n = 502, Mage = 10.12, SD = .48). All children completed the Children's Worlds survey, which includes individual factors, contextual factors of home and family, life and neighborhood, school, and peers, and subjective well-being measures for life satisfaction, mental health, and self-image. The strongest predictors of children's subjective well-being were family and peer relationships, school, and neighborhood quality. <br><br>FINDINGS support the international relevance of an ecological, relationship-based model of children's subjective well-being.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
