Sažetak
In this study we examined age and gender differences in importance and satisfaction with seven life domains: material status, health, achievement in life, relationships with family and friends, feelings of physical safety, acceptance by the community where they live and their happiness. Subjects were a representative sample of Croatia citizens (N=1, 242) divided into four age groups defined as young (18-29 years), middle (30-44), aged (45-59) and old age group (60+). Two MANOVA-s were used to examine the relationship between gender and age as independent variables and the sets of importance and satisfaction with seven life domains as dependent variables. Results showed that differences in importance and satisfaction ratings were greater across the age groups than between genders. The data characterize differences in quality of life across domains within a representative sample.
