The present study aimed to investigate the cultural life script characteristics of adolescents in Türkiye who reside in urban and rural areas based on adolescents' demographic characteristics (school level, gender, settlement type) and maternal socioeconomic characteristics (education level, working status, and past settlement type). To investigate the life script properties of Turkish adolescents further, the written scripts are examined based on social/relational and individual/achievement themes. This study is conducted under the scope of a larger national project, supported by TÜBİTAK, with 445 students from 55 cities around Türkiye. The cultural life scripts are collected via The Cultural Life Script Questionnaire developed by Berntsen and Rubin (2004). The data was analyzed using descriptive analyses and three-way MANOVAs depending on the hypotheses. Results showed that there is a temporal bump in adolescents' cultural life scripts, and they heavily consist of positive events. For the script theme analyses, there was an age difference found for both social/relational and individual/achievement themes. No difference was found for gender or settlement type. For maternal socioeconomic characteristics, an interaction effect was found for individual/achievement themes. Overall, the findings support the cultural life script in Turkish adolescents and expand on existing literature by examining script themes within age, gender, settlement type, and maternal socioeconomic characteristics. The findings were discussed within the autobiographical memory and cultural life script literature, including the contributions, strengths, limitations, and future suggestions.
