    El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo estimar las correlaciones entre la satisfacci贸n con la vida, la religi贸n y la salud en una muestra de 446 participantes (42,60% varones y el 57,40% mujeres), con edades comprendidas entre los 18 a 69 a帽os. Adicionalmente se llev贸 a cabo un an谩lisis de regresi贸n m煤ltiple por pasos con el fin de conocer las variables predictoras de la satisfacci贸n con la vida. Todos los participantes completaron los siguientes instrumentos: Cuestionario sociodemogr谩fico, Escala de Satisfacci贸n con la Vida, Cuestionario de Salud SF-36 y Escala de Religiosidad. A partir de los resultados se comprob贸 que la satisfacci贸n con la vida no se asocia con la religi贸n profesada. Mayor satisfacci贸n con la vida fue predicha por mayor pr谩ctica religiosa organizacional, mejor salud general, mejor salud mental y mejor rol emocional. En definitiva, el nivel de satisfacci贸n con la vida no parece estar relacionado con la religi贸n profesada, aunque s铆 con la pr谩ctica de actividades que propone la instituci贸n religiosa de cada uno.The objective of the present study was to estimate the correlations between the satisfaction with life, religion and health in a sample of 446 participants (42,60% men and 57,40% women) between the ages of 18 to 69 years.
