Abstract

The purpose of this study was to propose a way to promote happiness by applying hope and a growth mindset by verifying whether the growth mindset moderates the influence of the human rights victimization experience of university students on happiness through hope. The subjects of this study were 233 university students who were conveniently sampled from two universities in Chungnam and Jeonnam, and the data were analysed by using SPSS PC+ Win ver. 25.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.0. Applied statistical techniques were descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and moderated mediating effect analysis. Bootstrap was used to verify the moderated mediating effect. For verification, the confidence level was 95%, the number of samples was set to 5,000, and the conditional effect was analyzed based on three conditions (M±SD, M). In the analysis of moderated mediating effects, the independent and moderating variables were average-centered. As a result of the study, first, human rights victimization showed a significant negative correlation with growth mindset, hope, and happiness. Growth mindset showed a significant positive correlation with hope and happiness. And hope showed a positive correlation with happiness. Second, the growth mindset moderated the mediating effect of human rights victimization on happiness through hope. Based on these results, a plan to promote happiness by applying the hope and growth mindset in the relationship between the human rights victimization experiences and happiness of university students was suggested.
