Abstract:

The present aim was to estimate the internal reliability and convergent validity of the Depression-Happiness Scale. Internal reliability was .90, and higher scores on the Depression-Happiness Scale were associated with more internal control (.28), higher self-esteem (.36), and lower trait anxiety (–.69) among 45 undergraduates at the University of Ulster. The results provide some evidence for the validation of the Depression-Happiness Scale as well as confirming previous research on the correlates of happiness.

Abstract:

IntroductionThe focus of interest in this study is to investigate the relationship between happiness and optimism, satisfaction with life, hope, depression, and anxiety. Many efficient instruments have been used in this study, however there is no study until this date that has used the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ) within Arabic countries and Kuwaiti samples specifically.ObjectivesThe aim of the study is to investigate the correlations between happiness and optimism, satisfaction with life, hope, depression and anxiety.MethodsThe sample consisted of 510 students from Kuwait University, 270 females and 240 males, with a mean age of 22.8 (SD = 4.1). The OHQ 0.90 alpha was administered to participants, in addition to the Arabic version of Life Orientation Test-Revised (LOT-R) 0.70, The Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) 0.78, The Hope Scale (AHS) 0.60, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) 0.87 and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) 0.95. Correlations were used in this study.ResultsThe results revealed that all the correlations between OHQ and other scales were significant. Positive correlations have been found with LOT-R r = 0.50, SWLS r = 0.44, and AHS r = 0.39, while there were negative correlations with BDI-II r = −0.38 and BAI r = −0.17.ConclusionIt was concluded that happiness correlates positively with other personality variables: optimism, satisfaction with life and hope, while it correlates negatively with Depression and Anxiety.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his/her declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

According to professor Jokela, psychologists can know the social functioning of a person only by assessing their Personality traits. However, empirical studies have been focused on building linear regressions between only one facet of personality and Life Satisfaction, Altruism and Health accordingly; also, the accuracy of the prediction remained debatable. In practice, scales online help researchers to get data measurements of participants’ information needed in the study. Gradient descent works by building the optimized multiple linear regression to model the relationship of a lot of inputs and a single output; python programs enable researchers to test the accuracy of the predicted output of the regressions. The data was from a preparing study by another group of graduated students from Cambridge University, and it contained information of 1769 participants. By splitting the sample into testing sample (33%) and training sample (67%), three multiple linear regressions were built to model the relationship between 120 Personality items and an average Life Satisfaction score, Altruism score and Health score using the training sample; then, the accuracy of the models was tested using the testing sample. According to the small p-values of correlation between the y-reported and y-predicted for all the three predictions, the probability of getting extreme values was very small, which ensured the reliability of these prediction. According to Cohen’s conventions about effect size of correlation in Psychology and another authorized peer research, the Pearson-correlation value of Personality & Life Satisfaction regression shows a very high accuracy of using Personality to predict Life Satisfaction; also, the correlation values for Personality & Altruism and Personality & Health are also above moderate, which indicate nice and acceptable predictability for two regressions.

Abstract:

In a sample of 347 university students and community residents, measures of meaningfulness, self-esteem, internal locus of control, positive social relationships and optimism were given to predict subjective well-being, i.e., measures of happiness, life satisfaction, and affect balance. Correlations, canonical correlations, and structural equation modeling supported the hypothesis that meaningfulness is a significant mediator between personality variables and subjective well-being.

Anna Porczyńska-Ciszewska, Intellectual Disability and Experiencing Happiness. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 24, Poznań 2019.Pp. 51-66. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.24.03 Although it may be challenging to unambiguously recognize and define it, the notion of experiencing happiness, a constituent of psychological well-being, is undoubtedly one of the key traits featuring every person, whether intellectually fit or disabled. The feeling of happiness plays a significant role when coping with various types of situations including also the circumstances faced by an intellectually disabled person. Due to the diversity and multeity of the dimensions where it occurs, the experience of happiness can be subject of analyses from various stances, including the viewpoint of an intellectually disabled person. It seems that the disabled individual’s ability to deal with difficulties, which also influences efficiency of the rehabilitation process, is actually determined by the feelings of happiness, content and optimism, all of which remain in a relation with one’s personality, life situation,and conditions in which they live. The article draws attention to the subject of experiencing happiness by and psychological well-being of intellectually disabled people. It emphasizes the possibility of both theoretical and practical applications of assumptions of positive psychology as a requisite condition for the optimization of functioning of intellectually disabled people. Beyond any doubt, due care for the intellectually disabled people’s experience of happiness and psychological wellbeing is one of the most crucial requirements of their rehabilitation process as “positive states of mind (…) provide the power to struggle with adversities of life”
