Well-being is a multidimensional construct which includes hedonic and eudaimonic aspects. Hedonic well-being is focused on
happiness, while eudaimonic well-being is focused on developing of human potential. Most hedonic psychologists have used measures
of subjective well-being (SWB), which have two components: a cognitive evaluation of the satisfaction with one’s life as a
whole, and an affective component that refers to predominance of positive over negative affect (or affect balance). Eudaimonic
well-being, sometimes labelled psychological well-being (PWB), includes subjective evaluations of effective psychological
functioning. Ryff’s (1989a) model of PWB, which is included within the eudaimonic perspective, conceives well-being as a multidimensional construct
made up of life attitudes like self-acceptance, positive relation with others, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in
life, and personal growth. Research has revealed that SWB and PWB are related, but, they are also distinguishable, since they
were differentially related to various criteria. The main goal of the present study was to explore how these two different
aspects of well-being are related. Two hundred and fifty-five individuals (114 male and 141 female, mean age = 36.46, standard
deviation = 10.83) participated in the study. All the components of well-being were strongly interrelated, and mediational
analysis showed that affect balance mediated the relationships between some positive life attitudes and satisfaction with
life. Future research, using longitudinal designs, should clearly establish the causal relationships between the different
aspects of well-being. 相似文献

This study explored the relationship between religiosity, hope, and subjective well-being among 430 South African university students (n = 324) and their family members (n = 104) (70.2% female; 88.4% black; 8.4% white). Data were gathered utilising measures of religiosity, hope, satisfaction with life, and affect balance. We applied structural equation modelling to examine both the direct effects of religiosity on hope, as well as the indirect effects of religiosity on life satisfaction and positive and negative affect via hope as mediator. Findings suggest pathway and agency hope to mediate the relationships between religiosity and life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect. Specifically, religiosity predicted higher levels of life satisfaction and positive affect, and lower levels of negative affect via agency hope. The results suggest agency hope to mediate the relationship between religiosity and subjective well-being. 相似文献

主观幸福感的结构及其与人格特质的关系 总被引:12,自引:1,他引:11
以239名大学生为被试,考察了主观幸福感(SWB)的结构及其与人格特质的关系。分析表明,SWB由生活满意度、积极情感和消极情感三个相关的维度构成,而且它们可以共同负荷于一个高阶因子。外倾和神经质是SWB的重要预测指标,积极情感的主要预测指标是外倾,神经质则是消极情感最有力的预测指标,而外倾和神经质对消极情感和生活满意度有相同的预测力。情感平衡是外倾和神经质影响生活满意度的中介变量。 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to explore the relations between trait curiosity and the well-being of adolescents. The differences between adolescents with high, average and low trait curiosity on a number of subjective well-being (SWB) and distress measures have been examined. The sample consisted of 408 high school students, with an average age of 16.6 years. The results showed that adolescents high in trait curiosity have higher levels of life satisfaction and positive affect and greater sense of purpose in life and hope than adolescents with both low and average curiosity. Contrary to significant differences on positive well-being measures, there were no robust differences between adolescents with high, average and low curiosity in distress. The findings of this research indicated that curiosity is a specific predictor of positive well-being and gave support to the two continua model of mental health, which view positive and negative well-being as relatively independent constructs. 相似文献

An increasing number of studies suggest that the relationship between higher education and subjective well-being (SWB) is either insignificant or negative. Most of these studies, however, use life satisfaction as a proxy for SWB. In this study, using longitudinal data from the Household Income and Labor Dynamics in Australia survey, I examine the link between higher education and three different measures of subjective well-being: life satisfaction and its different sub-domains (evaluative), positive and negative affect (hedonic), and engagement and purpose (eudaimonic). Three substantial results emerge: (1) people with higher education are more likely to report higher levels of eudaimonic and hedonic SWB, i.e., they view their lives as more meaningful and experience more positive emotions and less negative ones; (2) people with higher education are satisfied with most life domains (financial, employment opportunities, neighborhood, local community, children at home) but they report lower satisfaction with the amount of free time they have; (3) the positive effect of higher education is increasing, but at a decreasing rate; the SWB gains from obtaining a graduate degree are much lower (on the margin) compared to getting a college degree. 相似文献

Subjective well-being (SWB) is defined in terms of positive and negative affect whilst psychological well-being (PWB) reflects self-referent attitudes of mastery and self-acceptance. Whilst both SWB and PWB are associated with personality, concurrent analysis is limited. This study (n = 679) reports on a teacher sample in which personality, SWB and PWB were measured. Results indicated moderate correlations between variables. Hierarchical regression controlled for personality and identified PWB as a significant predictor of SWB. Separate predictors of negative and positive affect support the need to assess both SWB affective components. As the most significant predictor of positive affect the inclusion of PWB is needed in future well-being research. 相似文献

Discrepancies often occur among informants’ reports of various domains of child and family functioning and are particularly
common between parent and child reports of youth violence exposure. However, recent work suggests that discrepancies between
parent and child reports predict subsequent poorer child outcomes. We propose a preliminary conceptual model (Discrepancies
in Victimization Implicate Developmental Effects [DiVIDE]) that considers how and why discrepancies between parents’ and youths’
ratings of child victimization may be related to poor adjustment outcomes. The model addresses how dyadic processes, such
as the parent–youth relationship and youths’ information management, might contribute to discrepancies. We also consider coping
processes that explain why discrepancies may predict increases in youth maladjustment. Based on this preliminary conceptual
framework, we offer suggestions and future directions for researchers who encounter conflicting reports of community violence
exposure and discuss why the proposed model is relevant to interventions for victimized youths. 相似文献

A Person-Centered Approach to Subjective Well-Being 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Rooted in Diener’s (Psychol Bull 95:542–575, 1984) three-component model of subjective well-being (SWB), the present work
employed a person-centered approach to studying SWB based on Shmotkin’s (Rev Gen Psychol 9:291–325, 2005) dynamic systems
framework. Within-individual configurations of life satisfaction (LS), positive affect (PA), and negative affect (NA) were
explored using cluster analysis. Five distinct SWB configurations replicated within and across two samples (N = 756 first-year undergraduates; N = 550 community adults). A substantial number of participants reported a profile indicative of “high SWB” (high LS, frequent
PA, infrequent NA). Consistent with expectations, these individuals were characterized by elevated mental, physical, and interpersonal
functioning. In contrast, people with a “low SWB” profile reported the greatest dysfunction. Across the five clusters, however,
adaptive functioning was not unique to individuals reporting a high SWB profile, nor was dysfunction unique to people characterized
by a low SWB configuration. Results are discussed in terms of compensation and strain processes hypothesized by Shmotkin (2005).
Implications for future research on SWB are considered.

AbstractUsing a nationally representative sample (N?=?507) from Singapore, this study examined whether personality, financial satisfaction, and autonomy were important to subjective well-being (SWB), and how the importance of these predictors varied across different SWB facets—life satisfaction, happiness, positive feelings, and negative feelings. The findings indicated that neuroticism, financial satisfaction, and autonomy, were important predictors of happiness. Personality was most important for affective well-being (i.e., positive and negative feelings), whereas financial satisfaction was most important for life satisfaction. Specifically, neuroticism accounted for substantial variance in positive and negative feelings, and was the strongest correlate among the Big Five traits. In contrast, financial satisfaction explained most of the variance in life satisfaction. This highlights that the importance of well-being predictors depended on the facet of well-being examined. The findings suggest that residents in an affluent nation like Singapore do not emphasize only postmaterialist values (e.g., autonomy) and disregard materialist concerns (e.g., financial satisfaction). Though certain SWB facets (positive and negative affect) are largely influenced by dispositional factors, other facets (life satisfaction and happiness) are closely related to factors (e.g., financial satisfaction, autonomy) that may be affected by social policies. Policymakers can thus target those aspects to enhance people’s SWB. 相似文献

Studies among youth have established a link between mental health and physical health, and highlight the importance of attending
to these relationships to provide a more complete picture of functioning. However, most previous investigations have limited
their focus to examining the relationship between physical health and either particular aspects of psychopathology or particular
aspects of subjective well-being. The current study serves as a first examination that includes both positive (subjective
well-being [SWB]) and negative (psychopathology) indicators of mental health in relation to physical health functioning, assessed
via self-report measures completed by a sample of 401 early adolescents from the general population. Mental health indicators
accounted for 30% of the variance in physical health ratings, and 4 of the 5 mental health indicators were unique predictors
of physical health. Positive affect, a component of SWB, explained the most unique variance in physical health, followed by
the other components of SWB. Results support the importance of attending to positive indicators of mental health when determining
the link with physical health among youth. Implications for a research and practice focus on comprehensive wellness among
youth are discussed. 相似文献

Based on Diener's (Diener, E. (1984). Subjective well-being. Psychological Bulletin, 95, 542–575.) tripartite model of subjective well-being (SWB), subjective evaluations of past, present, and anticipated future life satisfaction (LS), positive affect (PA), and negative affect (NA) were evaluated in a cross-sectional undergraduate sample. Upward mean trends in subjective trajectories (past?<?present?<?future) were typical, on average, for each SWB component. As predicted, higher levels of present SWB were aligned with greater positive psychological, physical, and interpersonal functioning. In contrast, steeper upward subjective SWB trajectories were associated with greater distress and dysfunction. Of the three SWB components, unique links with indicators of functioning were most consistent for LS trajectories. We conclude that a temporally expanded conceptualization of SWB spanning subjective assessments of past, present, and anticipated future LS, PA, and NA provides a rich framework for studying the structure of SWB and the significance of how people perceive their well-being to be unfolding over time. 相似文献

Students Who Like and Dislike School 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The major goal of this study was to investigate relationships among levels of 341 secondary school students’ school satisfaction
and various intrapersonal, interpersonal, and academic measures. The measures included the School subscale from the Multidimensional
Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (Huebner, 1994), Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (Huebner, 1991), Children’s Hope Scale (Snyder et al. 1997), Behavioral Assessment System for Children (Reynolds & Kamphaus, 1992), self-perceived grade point average (GPA) and participation in extracurricular activities (SEAs). Students were placed into
three groups based on their school satisfaction reports, including very low (lowest 20%), average (middle 30%), and very high
(highest 20%) levels of school satisfaction. Students with very low school satisfaction differed from students with very high
school satisfaction on all adjustment measures; students with very low school satisfaction also differed from students with
average levels of school satisfaction on all measures, except the self-esteem measure. Relative to students reporting average
levels of school satisfaction, students reporting very high satisfaction demonstrated significantly higher scores on measures
of global life satisfaction, hope, internal locus of control, and GPA. Finally, only three students in the very high satisfaction
group and nine students in the average satisfaction group reported clinical levels of psychological symptoms. In the very
low satisfaction group, clinical levels of symptoms were reported by 30%, 22%, and 16% of the students on the Clinical Maladjustment,
Personal Adjustment, and Emotional Symptoms Index, respectively. Implications for future research and educational practices
are discussed. 相似文献

Hyperactivity, impulsivity, and attention problems (HIA) in children and adolescents are stressful for parents. In this study,
we used theories of parents’ perceived power and attributions for youths’ behaviors to develop a model to understand parents’
reactions to their youths’ HIA. We followed 706 youths (376 boys and 330 girls, aged 10–12 years at T1) and their parents
in a community-based project over 5 years. Measures of youths’ HIA, youths’ unresponsiveness to correction, parents’ feelings
of powerlessness, parental monitoring, and parents’ negative behaviors toward their youths, were used. HIA in youths predicted
increases in parents’ perceptions that their youths were unresponsive to correction, which in turn prompted parents to feel
more powerless over time. Further, parents’ feelings of powerlessness were associated with increases in negative parenting
behaviors over time. These results indicate a movement to more negative parenting practices over time as a result of youths’
HIA. 相似文献

In this article the structure of subjective well-being (SWB), the relationship between household income and SWB and mean differences in components of SWB in China and the USA are investigated. Both China and the USA were characterized in a three-factor model of SWB (life satisfaction, positive affect and negative affect). Household income was more strongly positively correlated with the three major components of SWB in China than in the USA. Lower levels of SWB were generally reported by participants in China than in the USA; however, there were mean differences in different regions of China. 相似文献

Much research has investigated how individual components of subjective well-being (e.g., life satisfaction, positive affect, negative affect) influence adolescent functioning. Little is known, however, about how the third component of subjective well-being (SWB), life satisfaction, contributes to positive adolescent outcomes when investigated simultaneously with positive and negative emotions. The current study extends Lewis et al.’s (J Psychoeduc Assess 27:397–408, 2009. doi:10.1177/0734282908330571) work by considering the incremental validity of life satisfaction (LS) relative to negative affect (NA) and positive affect (PA) as predictors of student engagement and achievement in a sample of middle school students. Results indicated LS provided incremental validity over affective states in predicting student engagement and some aspects of academic achievement. Gender also moderated these relationships. Practitioners are encouraged to include all components of SWB in assessments, especially when trying to understand students’ school functioning. 相似文献

Comprehensive models of personality aspire to integrate the several aspects related to the study of personality in a coherent whole. One of the great research challenges in this field is to understand if and how different levels of personality analysis interrelate to promote human well-being. The aim of the present study is to explore the mediator effect of personal projects’ efficacy on the relationship between Big Five and subjective well-being (SWB) components. We conducted a cross-sectional study in which a battery of self-report questionnaires was used to assess personality and SWB in 396 teachers. Path analysis results indicated that personal projects’ efficacy fully mediated the effects of openness to experience, agreeableness and conscientiousness on life satisfaction and on negative affect. The effects of neuroticism, openness to experience, agreeableness and conscientiousness on positive affect were direct but also indirect, partially mediated by personal projects’ efficacy. Neuroticism had a direct and an indirect effect through a decreased personal projects’ efficacy on the three components of SWB. Extraversion only directly predicted increased positive affect. These findings corroborate the conceptualization that these two types of personality analysis units (Big Five and personal projects) have their own direct, unique and irreducible effect on life satisfaction, positive affect and negative affect. However, their impact on SWB components seems to be also explained through their effect upon personal projects’ efficacy. 相似文献

This study empirically examined the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and subjective well‐being (SWB) in India. SWB variables used were life satisfaction, positive affect and negative affect. A total of 183 participants in the age range 30–40 years from Pune, India, completed the personality and SWB measures. Backward stepwise regression analysis showed that the Big Five traits accounted for 17% of the variance in life satisfaction, 35% variance in positive affect and 28% variance in negative affect. Conscientiousness emerged as the strongest predictor of life satisfaction. In line with the earlier research findings, neuroticism and extraversion were found to predict negative affect and positive affect, respectively. Neither openness to experience nor agreeableness contributed to SWB. The research emphasises the need to revisit the association between personality and SWB across different cultures, especially non‐western cultures. 相似文献

The primary aim of this study was to examine how motives and commitment to social values influence well-being in men and women
of different ages. College students and older adults in the community reported on their motivational orientation (intrinsic
vs. extrinsic), behavioral commitment to idiographic social values, and their current well-being (satisfaction with life,
positive and negative affect). We tested a series of path models with motivational orientation mediating the relationship
between commitment to values and well-being. Consistent with self-determination theory, we found that behavioral commitment
to intrinsically motivating social values was related to greater life satisfaction and positive affect, whereas being committed
to extrinsically motivating values was related to greater negative affect. While age and gender did not moderate these relationships,
meaningful age and gender differences emerged across value-based motivations, commitment, and indices of well-being. This
work adds to our understanding of how values are a guiding influence for successful navigation of one’s social world. 相似文献

WHO IS HAPPY? 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A flood of new studies explores people's subjective well-being (SWB) Frequent positive affect, infrequent negative affect and a global sense of satisfaction with life define high SWB These studies reveal that happiness and life satisfaction are similarly available to the young and the old, women and men, blacks and whites, the rich and the working-class. Better clues to well-being come from knowing about a person's traits, close relationships, work experiences, culture, and religiosity. We present the elements of an appraisal-based theory of happiness that recognizes the importance of adaptation, cultural world view, and personal goals 相似文献

Optimizing well-being: the empirical encounter of two traditions 总被引:42,自引:0,他引:42
Subjective well-being (SWB) is evaluation of life in terms of satisfaction and balance between positive and negative affect; psychological well-being (PWB) entails perception of engagement with existential challenges of life. The authors hypothesized that these research streams are conceptually related but empirically distinct and that combinations of them relate differentially to sociodemographics and personality. Data are from a national sample of 3,032 Americans aged 25-74. Factor analyses confirmed the related-but-distinct status of SWB and PWB. The probability of optimal well-being (high SWB and PWB) increased as age, education, extraversion, and conscientiousness increased and as neuroticism decreased. Compared with adults with higher SWB than PWB. adults with higher PWB than SWB were younger, had more education, and showed more openness to experience. 相似文献
