Life satisfaction is commonly used as an indicator of general well-being (Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985), and has been found to be related to perceived stress, reported level of social support, and self-efficacy in university students (Coffman & Gilligan, 2002). However, few studies have looked at how life satisfaction relates to different aspects of sleep in student populations (Lund, Reider, Whiting, & Prichard, 2010), even though the importance of sleep for well-being has been documented in other populations. Paunio and colleagues (2009) found in a nationwide cohort study including 18 631 Finnish twins, that poor sleep can predict life dissatisfaction. Similarly, a longitudinal study by Kalak, Lemola, Brand, Holsboer-Trachsler, and Grob (2014) found that sleep duration in Swiss and Norwegian adolescents prospectively predicted psychological well-being (as measured by the Bern well-being questionnaire for adolescents-subscale). Considering that sleep problems have been found to also be present at alarming levels in college and university students (Buboltz, Brown, & Soper, 2001; Lund et al., 2010), more research regarding the relationship between sleep variables and well-being in college and university students is needed. Life Satisfaction Definitions of well-being and happiness can be grouped into three categories: normative, affective and cognitive (Diener, 1984). Only the two latter categories, the affec-tive and cognitive, consider the individual's own assessments, and is therefore relevant to subjective well-being. The affective category of happiness focuses on positive and negative affect, and has more resemblance to how we use the word happiness in everyday discourse. The cognitive category on the other hand, includes definitions that have focused on what make individuals evaluate their life in positive terms. One type of well-being, life satisfaction, falls into this cognitive category of happiness according to Shin & Johnson (1978) and is defined as a judgmental process where individuals assess the quality of their life by using their own criteria. Importantly, the judgement of the degree to which people are satisfied with their life is based on a comparison with a standard set by the individual him or herself, and is not externally imposed (Diener et al., 1985). Another construct that has been used when studying well-being is quality of life. Although this construct has been given countless definitions, it seems to often be defined in a broader way than life satisfaction and concerns the general well-being of people and societies (Felce & Perry, 1995). However, it is also sometimes used interchangeably with life satisfaction (e.g., Frisch, Cornell, Villanueva, & Retzlaff, 1992). In the current study, only life satisfaction, as defined above, is used. Sleep As sleep is a complex phenomenon, it can be helpful to consider which aspects of sleep one is interested in when studying its relationships to other concepts. Using more than one aspect of sleep also allows for a comprehensive assessment of...
