Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the determinants of overall life satisfaction in Türkiye by using six different life domains (e.g., housing, financial standing, work conditions, the government's security policies, health, and marriage). In this way, it will be possible to drive a more efficient policy implications through domain satisfactions. Life Satisfaction Survey Micro Data Set of the Turkish Statistical Institute was used in the study during the period 2014-2017, and the determinants of overall life satisfaction are estimated simultaneously using the regressions created for the six domain satisfactions. The empirical findings of the study show that financial satisfaction and marriage satisfaction increase life satisfaction more than other domains in Türkiye.
