Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate life satisfaction and its influencing factors among 235 middle-aged women in Granada, Spain, using various scales and questionnaires to gather data on health and personal circumstances.
- - Results indicated that a majority of the participants were postmenopausal and faced issues like obesity and insomnia; life satisfaction was positively associated with partner exercise habits and negatively associated with work problems and perceived stress.
- - The findings suggest that life satisfaction in these women is primarily linked to stress, work issues, and relationship status, while menopause and general health did not play a significant role.
