This study examined life satisfaction among Turkish individuals based on gender and sexual orientation. 223 participants completed surveys assessing their gender, sexual orientation, age, and life satisfaction. A two-way ANOVA found no significant interaction between gender and sexual orientation on life satisfaction. However, an independent samples t-test found that heterosexual individuals reported higher life satisfaction than non-heterosexual individuals. The researchers concluded that in Turkey, life satisfaction is related to sexual orientation but not gender.
