Abstract
The study examined if meaning in life is a predictor of psycho-social adjustment (depression, life satisfaction, and family life satisfaction) beyond the robust predictors of social support and affectivity. Results from 247 college students indicated that presence of meaning in life is uniquely predictive of both depression and life satisfaction.
