摘要：AbstractThe person that has the biggest value and importance after family is the child's first teacher in his/her life. While the child met the teacher at the beginning of the primary school in the period when pre-school education did not become widespread, now the situation has changed and the importance of pre-school education has expanded, too. Consequently, teachers of pre-school education have important tasks and responsibilities in this stage. The main purpose of this research is to reveal whether there is a relationship between multidimensional perfectionism, humor styles and life satisfaction and the extent to which the variables of multidimensional perfectionism, humor styles contribute to the prediction of subjective well-being. The inputs of the research have been obtained from totally 287 Pre-school Teacher Training students of Mehmet Akif Ersoy University. Life Satisfaction Scale that was developed by Diener, Emmons, Larsen and Griffin (1985) and adapted in Turkish by Köker and Yetim (1991) has been used to determine the students’ life satisfaction levels. Besides this scale, the inputs of the study have been obtained by using Multi-Dimensional Perfectionism Scale that was developed by Hewitt and Flett (1989) and adapted in Turkish by Oral (1999) and “Humor Style Scale” that was developed by Weir (2003) and adapted in Turkish by Yerlikaya (2003). Standard multi regression analysis has been used to reveal predictive powers of their perfectionism levels’ and their styles of humor's life satisfaction levels of the candidates for pre-school teaching in the research.
