Summary/Abstract: The study investigates the quality of life in adolescent girls (N 97) with psychosocial disabilities committed to the re-education facilities in Slovakia and Poland. More specifically, we focus on comparison of the cognitive evaluation of life as a whole. In order to determine life satisfaction or dissatisfaction we used the exploratory Life Satisfaction Questionnaire composed by Fahrenberg, Myrtek, Schumacher, and Brähler (2001). The collected data were then analysed using a t-test showing that the girls were neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with their life cycle in the re-education facilities, without any significant differences.The study investigates the quality of life in adolescent girls (N 97) with psychosocial disabilities committed to the re-education facilities in Slovakia and Poland.
