and the sample population used for the research is comprised of 409
students, both male and female, studying at Payam-e Noor universities of the
Kermanshah province in the year 2015. The samples were selected by multistage
cluster sampling and were analyzed by inferential statistical analysis.
The major findings of the research are as follows:
There is a direct, significant relationship between the degree of sense of
social security (and different dimensions of it, including a sense of financial,
political and criminal security) and the level of life satisfaction. This implies
that with an increase in the sense of security, the level of life satisfaction also
increases and vice versa. Moreover, there is a significant relationship < br />between all the dimensions of social security and life satisfaction, such that
with an increase in degree of the sense of financial, political and criminal
security, the level of life satisfaction also increases and vice versa. Also, all
of the dimensions of social security, the sense of financial security has the
greatest impact on the level of life satisfaction when compared to the other
two dimensions i.e. criminal and political security.
