Sažetak

The aim of this study was to investigate adolescents' subjective well-being as well as to explore relations between well-being indicators and life expectations. The total of 158 high-school students participated in the study. Depressive symptoms, life satisfaction, self-esteem and life expectations were examined by the use of self-report measures. The results have shown that boys and girls differ in the depressive symptomatology, i.e. girls expressed a significantly higher level of depressive symptoms. As opposed to this, no gender differences have been found in life satisfaction and self-esteem, or in the subjective well-being between students attending first and final year of their high school education. However, significant gender differences regarding life expectations have been established. Compared to boys, girls attached more importance to starting their own family and parenthood. However, no gender differences have been established regarding expectations on self-competence and job-hunting after graduation. As expected, results have generally proved significant relations among the indicators of subjective well-being, as well as significant relations between well-being indicators and life expectations of adolescents.
