The purpose of this study was to examine the association of social-emotional loneliness and life satisfaction, among Palestinian university students in the West Bank. Participants were 500 volunteer undergraduate students (36.4% males and 63.6% females) ranging in age from 18 to 26 years old. Data were collected using the Social Emotional Loneliness Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale, and a Demographic Information Form. There were significant gender differences regarding social emotional loneliness, and male students’ scores were higher in social, romantic and family loneliness than those of female students. Results showed that students who had higher social-emotional loneliness, felt less satisfied with their life

Keywords: Social-emotional loneliness, life satisfaction.
