Diener (2000) explains that Subjective Well Being is an individual's evaluation of their life, namely affective and cognitive evaluation. This research uses a qualitative phenomenological approach on three juvenile. The research results showed that the three teenagers had all aspects of SWB with different evaluations while serving their sentences at LPKA Class I Medan. The cognitive evaluation expressed by Subject I accepted the results of the verdict because his father said to accept all punishments as his responsibility. Subject II received his punishment because he felt guilty for committing an immoral act and felt that what happened was because God was angry because he sometimes broke his mother's words. Subject III accepted and endured because he had to serve his sentence. The affective aspect seen in the three subjects while at LPKA was that Subject I felt comfortable (positive affect) but felt unfair because he was reported (negative affect). Subject II did not feel punished at LPKA (positive affect) but felt burdened by this case of immoral acts (negative affect). Subject III showed that he was relaxed about serving his sentence (positive affect) but still felt punished and not free (negative affect).
