Resumen
Se analiza, en una comunidad campesina del sur peruano, la satisfacción con la vida,
desde dos conceptualizaciones cada una con diferentes metodologías. La primera, corresponde
al constructo Satisfacción con la Vida (Diener, 1984) el cual, desde una metodología
cuantitativa, ha recibido atención prominente durante los últimos veinte años (Ryan & Deci,
2001). La segunda aproximación descansa en la conceptualización post-hoc de Yamamoto,
Feijoo y Lazarte (2008), la cual partiendo de una metodología cualitativa-cuantitativa, sustenta
el significado de Satisfacción Subjetiva de Vida desde aquello que la propia población
considera necesario para alcanzar la felicidad. Ambas metodologías configuraron dos etapas
en el estudio con dos muestras diferentes (N=30 y N=68, respectivamente). Tanto la escala de
Diener como la percepción de logro de la metas émicas asociadas a lo moderno reportaron
niveles de equilibrio; en tanto las metas émicas orientadas a lo tradicional alcanzaron niveles
de satisfacción. Se encontró, además, correlación significativa entre la escala de Diener y las
metas orientadas a lo moderno. Estos hallazgos enfatizan la importancia de ambas
perspectivas y su complementariedad en el estudio de la Satisfacción con la Vida.
Palabras claves: Satisfacción con la Vida, método cuantitativo, Satisfacción Subjetiva de Vida,método cualitativo, comunidad campesina.
Considering two approaches, each one with different methodologies, this study analyses satisfaction with life in a south Peruvian rural community. The first orientation refers to the construct Satisfaction with Life (Diener, 1984) which, using a quantitative method, has received prominent attention during the last twenty years (Ryan & Deci, 2001). The second approach is based on the post-hoc conceptualization of Yamamoto, Feijoo and Lazarte (2008) which, from a qualitative-quantitative orientation, supports the meaning of Subjective Life Satisfaction on what people consider necessary to be happy. Both methodologies configured two stages with two different samples (N=30 and N=68, respectively). Results indicate that both approaches, the Diener scale and emic goals associated with modernity, reported levels of equilibrium; moreover, emic goals associated with traditional goal reported high levels of satisfaction. It was also found significant correlation between the Diener scale and goals associated with modernity. These findings emphasize the importance of both perspectives and the complementarity of them in the study of Satisfaction with Life. Keywords: Satisfaction with Life, quantitative method, Subjective Satisfaction of Life, qualitative method, rural community.
