Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between well-being, social anxiety and self-regulation skills in adolescents. The study also examined whether well-being, social anxiety, and self-regulation vary according to some demographic information variables (gender, age, grade, level of income, number of siblings) in adolescents. For this purpose, 'Demographic Information Form', 'EPOCH Measure of Adolescent Well-Being', 'Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescents (SAS-A)' and 'Adolescent Self-Regulatory Inventory-ASRI' were given to a total of 436 adolescents, 327 males and 109 females, who were studying in different high schools and secondary schools in Istanbul. Pearson Moment correlation coefficient was used to determine the level of the relationships between the well-being, social anxiety and self-regulation skills of adolescents. In addition, t-test and one way ANOVA were used to find out whether well-being, social anxiety and self-regulation skills of adolescents differed according to demographic variables. According to the findings obtained from data analysis, significant differences were found demographic variables gender and grade and well-being and avoidance in general situations, which is one of the sub-dimensions of social anxiety. Significant difference was also found between the variable of age and level of well-being. No significant difference was found between the number of siblings and level of income and well-being, social anxiety and self-regulation skills of adolescents. When the relationships between variables were investigated, a positive moderate correlation was found between well-being and success in self-regulation, while positive low level correlation was found between all sub-dimensions of social anxiety and inadequacy in self-regulation.
