This study is aimed to scrutinize the relationship between satisfaction and concern with an individual's physical appearance and the subjective estimation of economic status, which is considered as one of main predictors of life satisfaction. Recent research has focused on the role of real economic status on different aspects of human life, including satisfaction and concern with own appearance. In contrast with such studies, our investigation is focused on a subjective-comparative approach to economic status evaluation. According to this approach, the participants have to identify themselves either with the group "rather poor than rich" or with the group "rather rich than poor". We hypothesize that satisfaction and concern with own appearance in youth varies as a factor of subjective evaluation of economic status. The participants were 41 male and 82 female undergraduate and graduate students of different majors, aged 20-35. Of the subjects, 62% estimated their economic status as "rather poor than rich" and 38% of participants identified themselves with the group "rather rich than poor". The paper-pencil questionnaires "Attitudes towards Own Appearance: Satisfaction and Concern" and "Subjective Evaluation of Economic Status" were administered. Results indicates that subjective evaluation of economic status has a stronger association with satisfaction with one's own physical appearance in comparison with concern over one's own appearance.
