Özet

This study examines the relationship between social trust, institutional trust, and individual life satisfaction based on the seventh round of the World Values Survey data conducted in Türkiye between 2017 and 2020. The research results show a positive and statistically significant relationship between social and institutional trust and individual life satisfaction. Considering the control variables, the relationship between social trust, institutional trust and individual life satisfaction continues. By highlighting the complexity of the relationship between types of trust and life satisfaction, the research provides an important foundation for future research. The role of trust in policies and interventions to improve the well-being of society needs to be considered, and further research is required.
