The purpose of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Korean version of Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (K-MSLSS). The K-MSLSS and K-CDI were administered to 254 children in grades 3 through 6. Sub-samples completed a retest and the Self- Perception Scale. Result of the exploratory factor analysis supported a five-factor structure: friends, school, family, environment, and self. Retest stability was acceptable for the five factors. Virtually all relationships between the K-MSLSS and K-CDI supported the validity of the K-MSLSS. However, several hypothesized relationships between the K-MSLSS and the Self-Perception Scale were not supported. These results offer further evidence for the concurrent validity of the K-MSLSS.
