- Abstract
We estimate a structural equation model using the representative SOEP-panel (DIW Berlin) to find the explaining factors for life satisfaction and expectations for the future of young people being seventeen years old in the years 2006 to 2013. The respondents state a high life satisfaction and rate their future positively. The personality of the respondents has a strong effect on their feeling to have control over their life and on life satisfaction in general and expectations for the future. Also, a supporting and appreciating attitude of parents which is positively influenced by their own satisfaction, strengthens the satisfaction of young people. The satisfaction varies between school types, however no significant differences can be found regarding pupils' expectations of the future.
