Abstract
This meta-analysis focused on the relation between social comparison and life satisfaction. Negative associations were observed in social networks (r = -0.29, 95%[-0.38; -0.18]; k=13; N = 8339) and a positive effect was observed with comparison base on subjective social status (r = 0.35, 95%[0.24; 0.46]; k =7; N =76830).
