Distinct associations between gratitude, self-esteem, and optimism with subjective and psychological well-being among Japanese individuals

BackgroundMounting evidence suggests that the effectiveness of positive psychology interventions is influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural context. Identifying intervention targets that can effectively contribute to improving individual well-being under these boundary conditions is a crucial step when developing viable interventions. To this end, we examined how gratitude disposition, self-esteem, and optimism relate to the subjective well-being (SWB) and psychological well-being (PWB) of Japanese individuals.MethodsMultivariate regression analysis was employed to quantify the unique relationships between the three potential intervention targets and both SWB and PWB, while accounting for the influence of other variables. Participants (N = 71) also engaged in a 4-week experience sampling study to explore how gratitude, self-esteem and optimism shape the link between momentary affective states in everyday life and evaluations of day satisfaction.ResultsMultivariate regression analysis revealed that self-esteem was predominantly more strongly associated with SWB compared to gratitude disposition, whereas gratitude disposition was more strongly associated with the PWB dimensions, particularly personal growth, positive relations with others and purpose in life. Experience sampling data indicated that while both gratitude disposition and self-esteem moderated the association between momentary positive affect and day satisfaction evaluations, they did so in opposite ways; greater gratitude disposition strengthened the association, while greater self-esteem weakened it.ConclusionsOverall, the current results suggest that while gratitude, self-esteem, and optimism influence individual well-being as a whole, they likely play distinct roles in facilitating SWB and PWB in the studied cohort.

Who Benefits and How: Five Dimensions of Adolescent Psychological Well-Being and Their Relative Impact on Cardiometabolic Health in Adulthood

PurposePositive dimensions of psychological well-being in adolescence may help youth preserve cardiometabolic health (CMH) as they age, but little is known about which aspects of well-being matter most and for whom. This study examines the differential impact of five dimensions of adolescent psychological well-being on CMH maintenance in adulthood and considers social patterning in both their distribution and respective health benefits. MethodsData were from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (N = 3,464), five dimensions of psychological well-being were identified at baseline (1994–1995; mean age = 15 years): happiness, optimism, self-esteem, belonging, and feeling loved. CMH was measured using seven biomarkers related to chronic disease risk in 2008 (mean age = 28 years) and 2016–2018 (mean age = 38 years): high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, hemoglobin A1c, C-reactive protein, and body mass index. CMH maintenance in adulthood was characterized as having healthy levels of ≥6 biomarkers at each follow-up. ResultsYouth who reported higher levels of belonging in the teen years were more likely to maintain CMH across young adulthood than those who reported lower levels, regardless of one's social standing (ORper 1-standard deviation = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.03–1.46). Associations with other dimensions of well-being were heterogeneous by sex and race and ethnicity, while differences by socioeconomic factors were less apparent. DiscussionFostering belonging through supportive social environments may help set youth on positive health trajectories and prevent chronic disease across the lifespan.

Awareness campaigns supported by research helps in maintaining insight and positive mental health

Daily time spent on screens and psychological well-being: Cross-sectional association within the SUN cohort

BackgroundThe impact of various lifestyles on psychological well-being (PWB) remains under-studied. We aimed to explore the cross-sectional association between daily screen use (television, tablet and mobile phone) and PWB within the SUN cohort. MethodsPWB was assessed using the 29-item Ryff scale (ranging from 29 to 174), and participants with scores >75th percentile were considered as having optimal PWB. Participants were categorized based on their self-reported weekly screen usage hours. Postestimation logistic regression models assessing the prevalence likelihood of not achieving optimal PWB were adjusted for sociodemographic, psychological, personality and lifestyles factors. Isotemporal substitution models explored the potential impact on PWB resulting from replacing 1 h/day of screen time with 1 h/day of exercise. ResultsThe study included 3051 participants (55.8% women, mean age 57.3 ± 11.1 years, mean Ryff's score: 139.1 ± 17.4 points). Daily screen use for ≥2 h was associated with a higher prevalence likelihood of not achieving an optimal PWB (Prevalence Ratio [PR]:1.09; 95% CI:1.01–1.18). Among PWB dimensions, screen use ≥2 h/day was linked to an increased likelihood of not achieving optimal scores in environmental mastery (PR:1.11; 95% CI:1.02–1.20), life purpose (PR:1.10; 95% CI:1.02–1.18), and personal growth (PR:1.09; 95% CI:1.01–1.18). Replacing 1 h of daily screens time with 1 h of exercise may lead to potential improvements in environmental mastery (Odds Ratio [OR]:0.87; 95% CI:0.76–0.99), purpose in life (OR:0.86; 95% CI: 0.76–0.98), personal growth (OR:0.84; 95% CI:0.73–0.96) and positive interpersonal relationships (OR:0.86; 95% CI:0.75–0.99). ConclusionsThese findings highlight the importance of reducing screen use activities and increasing physical exercise for achieving optimal PWB.

Examining interindividual differences in unemployment-related changes in subjective well-being: The role of psychological well-being and re-employment expectations

This study examined whether the six trait-like dimensions of psychological well-being (e.g., autonomy and environmental mastery) moderate the effects of unemployment on various facets of subjective well-being (i.e., life satisfaction, satisfaction with life domains, and experienced mood). Further, re-employment expectations during unemployment were investigated as a moderator in this context. The study is based on monthly panel data ( Nobservations > 23,000) of two samples of initially employed German jobseekers, who either registered as jobseekers due to (i) mass layoffs or plant closures ( N = 552) or (ii) other reasons ( N = 988). The results indicate substantial interindividual differences in unemployment-related changes across all examined subjective well-being facets. However, dimensions of psychological well-being did generally not moderate these changes. Only in one unemployment context, environmental mastery was positively related to unemployment-related mood changes. Good re-employment expectations were related to increases in several well-being facets (e.g., leisure satisfaction) compared to being employed, whereas poor re-employment expectations were associated with particularly detrimental effects of unemployment in terms of life satisfaction. Overall, the study provides further evidence that (perceived) contextual features of unemployment seem to be particularly relevant for how individuals experience unemployment, whereas internal (coping) resources only seem to play a negligible role.

This will also help increase students' creative self-efficacy.

Exploring the interconnection between adverse childhood experiences and psychological well-being of emerging adults in a rural community in Lagos, Nigeria

There has been an increase in the study of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and their related outcomes in recent years. The current study explored the interconnections between ACEs and psychological wellbeing among emerging adults in a rural community in Lagos. The specific objectives were to establish the correlations between all the dimensions of ACEs and psychological wellbeing and check the predictive role of all the sub-conventional ACEs on psychological wellbeing. Three hundred seventy-eight high and tertiary school emerging adults were selected through a non-probabilistic sampling method. The ten conventional ACEs and Ryff's Psychological wellbeing scales were used to assess the respondents. Zero-order correlation and multiple regression were used to test the hypothesis. The results revealed that adverse childhood experience was significantly related to psychological wellbeing, which means that the higher the number of ACEs, the lower an individual's psychological wellbeing. Also, all the dimensions of ACEs significantly predict psychological wellbeing except verbal abuse (p =.160) and physical abuse (p =.515). ACEs were prevalent among emerging adults in rural communities and had deleterious effects on their psychological wellbeing. More work is needed in advocacies because several people do not know that physical and verbal abuse can affect the psychological wellbeing of emerging adults. Therefore, there is a need to develop various culturally appropriate assessment practices, interventions, and policy responses to the menace.

The Integral Role of Magnesium in Muscle Integrity and Aging: A Comprehensive Review.

Aging is characterized by significant physiological changes, with the degree of decline varying significantly among individuals. The preservation of intrinsic capacity over the course of an individual's lifespan is fundamental for healthy aging. Locomotion, which entails the capacity for independent movement, is intricately connected with various dimensions of human life, including cognition, vitality, sensory perception, and psychological well-being. Notably, skeletal muscle functions as a pivotal nexus within this intricate framework. Any perturbation in its functionality can manifest as compromised physical performance and an elevated susceptibility to frailty. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a central role in approximately 800 biochemical reactions within the human body. Its distinctive physical and chemical attributes render it an indispensable stabilizing factor in the orchestration of diverse cellular reactions and organelle functions, thereby rendering it irreplaceable in processes directly impacting muscle health. This narrative review offers a comprehensive exploration of the pivotal role played by magnesium in maintaining skeletal muscle integrity, emphasizing the critical importance of maintaining optimal magnesium levels for promoting healthy aging.

Assessment of Multiple Dimensions of Psychological Well-Being in Swiss Youth Born with a Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate

Objective This study examines the psychological well-being of Swiss youths born with a unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP), in a multi-dimensional and clinical perspective. Design Retrospective cross-sectional study. Setting Self-report questionnaires completed by youths born with UCLP, followed at a specialized cleft clinic in Switzerland, and by peers without UCLP, recruited in schools of the Vaud county, Switzerland. Participants Youths aged 7.5 to 16, born with UCLP (clinical group, n = 41, 29.2% female) or without UCLP (control group, n = 56, 49.0% female). Outcome measures Adverse life events (ALE; Adverse Life Events), behavioral and emotional symptoms ( Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire and Post-Traumatic Checklist Scale), bodily self-esteem ( Body Esteem Scale), quality of life ( Kidscreen-27), emotion regulation ( Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire), social support ( Sarason's Social Support Questionnaire). Results Most outcomes showed no significant group-difference. Compared to matched peers, youths with UCLP reported lower psychological quality of life and social support satisfaction, along with positive factors of fewer ALE and lower non-adaptive emotion regulation. In youths with UCLP, higher scores for ALE were associated with higher total scores for behavioral and emotional symptoms. Higher scores for bodily self-esteem were associated with higher scores for satisfaction of social support and adaptive emotion regulation. Conclusions Youths with UCLP show globally similar psychological well-being as matched peers. We observed some vulnerabilities but also protective factors, which support the need for psychological perspective within multidisciplinary care. The relationships between dimensions suggest specific targets that may have an impact in context of intervention.

Eksplorasi Kesejahteraan Psikologis pada Pasien Brachial Plexus Injury (BPI)

Abstract Background : Brachial plexus injury is an injury to the C1-T1 nerve that most commonly occurs in men of reproductive age. This injury can cause motor and mental disability because it requires more than one surgery with a long recovery time. However, existing rehabilitative services focus more on restoring motor skills or functional abilities and less on evaluating psychological conditions, coping and quality of life. Objectives:The purpose of this study is to determine how the condition of psychological well-being and how BPI patients manage or maintain their psychological well-being. Methods:The method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The number of participants was 6 patients from Soeharso Orthopedic Hospital, Surakarta who were selected through purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by in-depth interviews, then analyzed by content analysis. Results:The results showed that all BPI respondents experienced changes in the dimensions of psychological well-being. Conclusions:The dimensions that have experienced the most changes are self-acceptance, positive relations with others, purpose in life and environmental mastery. In addition, respondents also felt a change in subjective well-being. Adaptive strategies and emotional focused coping are most often used by respondents to maintain psychological well-being and adapt to life changes. By exploring this aspect, it can be taken into consideration in determining intervention that supports patient's independence. Keywords: Psychological well-being, Quality of life, Brachialis Plexus Injury

Influence of Perceived Organisational Support on the Dimensions of Psychological Well-being of Police Personnel in Nigeria

Psychological well-being of police personnel may be dependent on the kind of support they received in the organisation, especially in the heat of challenges and stress encountered in the course of performing their duties. Against this backdrop, this study investigated how the levels of perceived organisational support (low, moderate and high) influence the dimensions (control of self and events, happiness, social involvement, self-esteem, mental balance and sociability) and overall psychological well-being of police personnel in Nigeria. Purposive, proportionate, and accidental sampling techniques were used to select 1193 police personnel (652 males; 541 females) from two states in Nigeria. Their ages ranged from 24 to 59 years with a mean age of 38.08 years (SD = 8.27). They responded to measures of perceived organisational support and psychological well-being. Results of the One-way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s post hoc analyses showed that perceived organisational support significantly influenced all the dimensions of psychological well-being, except mental balance, such that police personnel who had high level of perceived organisational support  had higher control of self and events, happier, socially more involving, had higher positive evaluation of themselves, more sociable, and higher overall psychological well-being than those who had moderate or low level of perceived organisational support. This study recommends that police organisations and the supervisory agencies should institute psychological programs that target and improve the dimensions, with special focus on mental balance, and overall psychological well-being of police personnel.

Teenagers’ Well-Being through Family Leisure Activities

The rise in mental health issues and suicide rates among adolescents in Indonesia emphasizes the significance of prioritizing adolescent mental health. One key contributor to mental health issues and suicide among adolescents is the family unit. The psychological well-being of adolescents is linked to the dynamics of dual-earner families. The study seeks the correlation between family engagement in leisure activities and adolescents' psychological well-being from dual-income households in Indonesia. The research method employed is correlational. The study cohort comprises 173 adolescents from dual-income households selected through accidental sampling. Family Leisure Activity Profile (FLAP) and Ryff's Psychological Well-being Scale (RPWBS) measured family participation in leisure activities and subsequent psychological well-being. The results of the Spearman-rank correlation test revealed a significant positive association between family engagement in leisure activities and psychological well-being dimensions such as autonomy, environmental mastery, positive relationships with others, purpose in life, and self-acceptance (rs= 0.237-0.294, p< 0.01). The results also showed no correlation between family involvement in leisure activities and personal growth (rs= 0.880, p= 0.295). Therefore, increased family involvement in leisure time corresponds to enhanced psychological well-being for adolescents in dual-earner families. Parents who work should organize routine activities and leisure time with their teenagers, which promote self-expression, values transfer, and improved family members’ psychological well-being.

Physical activity, psychological well-being, and physiological variables in university administrative staff

Objective: To describe and analyze the physical activity, psychological well-being, and physiological variables of employees in a higher education institution in Colombia. Methods: A total of 90 participants were included, divided into 2 groups: women (n=45) and men (n=45). Validated instruments were used to measure levels of physical activity (IPAQ-SF), psychological well-being (PGWBI), and other measurement instruments for physiological variables. Results: The main findings reported correlations between systolic and diastolic hypertension with certain dimensions of psychological well-being and body composition variables, with the highest trend of hypertension being more commonly found in men over 41 years of age than in women. Univariate and multivariate comparison tests did not find significant differences between the study factors (gender, physical activity, PGWBIS, etc.). Conclusions: Men have a higher predisposition to hypertension, and we assert that men have significantly higher averages of hypertension in both systolic and diastolic levels. The association between gender and systolic hypertension also showed a greater tendency in men. Future studies are needed to explore the causal relationship between psychological dimensions and morphophysiological variables in individuals who work daily at university centers, such as office or administrative staff. Keywords: lifestyle, psychological dimensions, body state.

Analysis of Psychological Well-Being from a Compositional Data Analysis Perspective: A New Approach.

Well-being is a widely studied construct in psychology. In 1989, Carol Ryff proposed the "Scale of Psychological Well-Being (SPWB)", which has been validated in multiple languages. The instrument assesses six dimensions of psychological well-being: Self-acceptance, Positive Relationships with Others, Autonomy, Environmental Mastery, Purpose in Life, and Personal Growth. In this article, we propose to enrich the traditional approach of directly interpreting the raw scores in each dimension by incorporating Compositional Data Analysis. This new approach aims to identify "what proportion" of each dimension constitutes well-being, which will allow us to analyze the interactions between the different dimensions of well-being and balance among them. To achieve this, we introduce two position ratios (PR1 and PR2) and a general adjustment indicator called the General Indicator of Subjective Psychological Well-Being (GISPW), which characterizes individuals in a compositional manner, providing a fresh perspective in the interpretation of psychological test results, specifically those related to PWB. The proposal is illustrated with three cases taken from a study involving 628 university students who completed the psychological well-being scale questionnaire. The results show that the GISPW, PR1, and PR2 obtained offer relevant information about the overall balance of each case in the different dimensions.

Dance and Psychological Health: Effect of Dance Participation on Social Development

Dance is listed among the most common physical activities that have been integrated into almost all cultures and societies worldwide. The art of dancing engages an individual’s cognitive, social, and physical facets, all of which are integral components of psychological health and wellbeing. The social element of dance has been integrated into the modern health sector and other social settings to influence the relationship between psychological health and wellbeing and social support-related challenges. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether engaging in dance has an impact on the social dimension of psychological health and well-being. The initial hypothesis of the study, which was based on a literature review, was that participating in dance positively influences the social dimension of psychological well-being. An online literature review search that was conducted on the Google Scholar database for research published between 2013 and 2023 yielded 169 results from which 20 most recent studies between 2019-2023 were selected for inclusion in the final analysis. Dance promotes social wellness regardless of the settings in which it is performed by influencing the cognitive and behavioral processes regulating social relations among humans. Thus, dance is an effective vehicle for social support and a vital network for healthy social connections. Recent dance-based trends and dance practice characteristics could potentially serve as the new modes of social connections to promote social welfare.

PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING OF DISABILITY EMPLOYMENTS

There are 22.5 people with disabilities in Indonesia, but in 2021 the number of people with disabilities who are in employment will be 5.37% or 7.04 million people of the total number of workers in Indonesia. Employees with disabilities have different characteristics from employees in general. Psychological well-being for employees is a view of support received, accessibility and equality in work environment, social support from colleagues, as well as better opportunities for self-development. There were 81 participants in this study. The criteria for participation were employees with disabilities, employees working at PT. X, employees with at least SLB/SMK/SMA/equivalent education and employees who had worked at the company for at least one year. The measurement instrument used in this study is psychological well-being scale (PWBS), which is based on Ryff's dimensions of psychological well-being. It has a total of 45 statement items. The results of the normality test show that the research data have a normal distribution. The research result shows a high level of psychological well-being (M=4.03) with dimensions of variable autonomy (M=3.87), environmental mastery (M=3.95), personal growth (M=4.10), positive relationship with others (M=4.07), life purpose (M=4.06) and self-acceptance (M=4.06). This research found no differences in psychological well-being based on gender, age, tenure and disability categories, but significant differences based on education level, employment status and marital status using the independent samples t-test dan ANOVA.

The role of service quality in achieving sustainable development goal 3: shaping students' psychological well-being in an Egyptian higher education context

Purpose This study aims at exploring the role of higher education service quality in affecting students' psychological well-being through the lens of the sustainable development goals. This purpose is achieved through investigating the effects of functional and technical service quality dimensions on six psychological well-being dimensions, namely, environmental mastery, autonomy, self-acceptance, positive relationships with others, personal growth and purpose in life.Design/methodology/approach Using a survey, data were collected from 453 Egyptian students. The hypotheses are tested using structural equation modeling via SmartPLS 4. The study's limitations are the inability to use probability sampling techniques and length of the survey that led to low response rates.Findings The results show that functional service quality is positively associated with students' autonomy, positive relationships with others and self-acceptance, while functional service was found insignificant in affecting environmental mastery or self-acceptance. Further, positive results are found in the relationship between technical service quality and students' environmental mastery and self-acceptance. On the other hand, a negative relationship is detected between technical service quality and students' personal growth. Lastly, technical service quality is found to be insignificant in affecting students' autonomy or personal relationships with others.Originality/value This study responds to calls for more studies investigating how service quality can shape and affect customer well-being. Furthermore, this is the first study to investigate the different roles played by functional and technical service quality in affecting six psychological well-being dimensions of higher education students. Drawing on a sample of 453 Egyptian students, this study provides a novel contribution about the Egyptian higher education context, which is both understudied in the service literature and the well-being literature.
