Abstract: We examined how meaning in life, self-compassion, sleep quality, and exercise satisfaction contributed to 216 college students’ well-being cross-sectionally and one month later. Meaning in life was a unique predictor of happiness, life satisfaction, and self-rated mental health cross-sectionally and was the only unique predictor of well-being (happiness) longitudinally.
