Exploring social responsibility, social marketing and happiness using artificial intelligence, automated text analysis and correspondence analysis

PurposeThis work aims to examine the communication on Twitter of the most responsible companies in Spain to identify the topics covered on corporate social responsibility (CSR) from the perspective of happiness and social marketing. In addition, the profiles of the messages that show an association with the impact of the messages have been identified.Design/methodology/approachAn empirical analysis of the Twitter posts of Spain's ten most responsible companies has been carried out. The methodology of this work combines data mining techniques, sentiment analysis and content analysis, both from a quantitative and qualitative approach.FindingsThe results show that most brand tweets do not deal with CSR-related topics. The topics they address the most are those related to sports and the weather. From the perspective of social marketing, conversational-type tweets are the most published and have achieved the most significant reaction from the public. In addition, four messages' profiles have been identified based on the company and the emotional connotation associated with the impact, giving rise to more outstanding promotion of social causes.Originality/valueOur main contribution to this work has been to value positive communication and social marketing to promote better CSR on Twitter. In this sense, it has been verified that there is a relationship between the public's reaction, the affective connotation and the company that issues the messages.

Study on the Influence of Spousal Support on the Happiness of Spousal Entrepreneurship

In the context of mass entrepreneurship and innovation initiative, it has become a hot topic in academic circles to take the spiritual feeling of entrepreneurs in the process of entrepreneurship as a "soft index" to measure the success of entrepreneurship. As a branch of family entrepreneurship, spouse entrepreneurship has the characteristics of joint governance and spousal support based on the identity of spouse. Compared with ordinary entrepreneurs, spouse co-founders have more complex sources of stress and different evaluation criteria for happiness. Based on the method of questionnaire survey, this paper established a regression model, which first proved the positive relationship between husband and wife's joint entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial happiness, and further confirmed that spousal support would promote this relationship. From the perspective of happiness, it turns out that joint entrepreneurship of spouses can better meet the individual needs of entrepreneurs and family needs. Spouses' commitment and caring to each other can further boost happiness and reduce stress in starting a business, with the aim of offering a better form of entrepreneurship to stressful entrepreneurs around the world.

Afif Muhammad's Philosophy of Happiness Perspective

The purpose of this study is to examine happiness according to Afif Muhammad clearly, and how to achieve happiness. This research is a qualitative research. The method used is library research and interviews. The data sources used are Primary and Secondary Data. This study concludes that according to Afif Muhammad, happiness is an inner or mental situation that a person has in which a person feels calm, peaceful and safe and can also be felt by those around him. If someone has felt happiness then he will radiate that happiness to the people around him. He divided the stages of happiness into three categories: Lay level, Intermediate level, and Supreme Level. This division is not meant to distinguish the form of happiness but so that we can measure our level of happiness at which level. As for the factors that we must have to achieve happiness, namely: by having an honest nature and not hating anyone so that our lives become calm and can achieve true happiness.

The Influence of Social Crowdedness in Retail Stores on Consumers’ Shopping Satisfaction in the COVID-19 Era: A Focus on the Moderating Effects of Happiness and Time Perspective

Purpose – The construct of social crowdedness has been debated whether it impacts consumer shopping satisfaction positively or negatively. However, as the COVID-19 has prolonged, people fear places full of people due to possible contamination and so they avoid such areas. Therefore, this study expects that social crowdedness has a negative effect. However, this study also predicts that consumers’ individual values could moderate the negative effect of social crowdedness. Design/Methodology/Approach – This study recruited an experimental study design for the research purpose above. Through two experiments, this study examined the effect of social crowdedness on shopping satisfaction and the moderating effect of happiness perspective (study 1) and time perspective (study 2). Findings – The study found that people in a high social crowdedness condition showed lower shopping satisfaction. Furthermore, this negative reaction in a high social crowdedness condition was moderated depending on their dominant perspective. Research Implications – Those with calm happiness and present-fatalistic perspective showed even greater shopping satisfaction in low social crowdedness conditions. In contrast, those with exciting happiness and present-hedonic time perspectives showed comparably higher satisfaction in a high crowdedness condition. The results are expected to provide critical strategic implications to retail managers.

The eudemonic and hedonic role of happiness in a population with high levels of life satisfaction / El rol eudemónico y hedónico de la felicidad en una población con altos niveles de satisfacción con la vida

The hedonic perspective of happiness focuses on studying positive emotions and life satisfaction, while the eudemonic perspective prioritizes a meaningful life which leads to high functioning and the development of individual talents. It was hypothesized that well-being will be positively related to the domains associated with family and affective satisfaction and negatively associated with issues related to economic and physical security, and that the structure of happiness would primarily be comprised of elements of hedonic happiness. Measurements from a national survey (BIARE, 2014) were used, and the sample size was 39,274 men and women between the ages of 18 and 85. Via confirmatory factor analysis techniques, a model was confirmed with two factors which correlated negatively, one of which consolidates eudemonic elements while the other refers to negative affect. The findings contribute to explaining why the population of Mexico, the subject of this study, shows high levels of happiness even though it ranks below the average on almost all the quality-of-life indicators.

Happiness perspective of migrant labor households in the northeast, Thailand

This research focused on happiness perspectives of the migrant labour households in the Northeast, Thailand. The study relied on the qualitative methodology. The in-depth interview was conducted with key informants: village headman, senior persons, local officers and twelve heads of the international migrant households who had variation of migration patterns, selected by snowball techniques in one village within the O-lo District, Chaiyaphum Province. Data collection was done during April to May, 2017. The results were descriptive content analysis technique. The results indicated that most of the migrant labour households were farmers, grew rice and sugarcane and produced handicraft. Male labourers were the main group of the international migrants. The migrant labour households had only one labourer working abroad, with 2-month to10-year period of migration. The migration method that the labourers used in many destinations were through companies, brokers, the Department of Employment, or themselves. The migrant labour households defined happiness as good relationship within households, financial security, ability to manage debt and tension, household members being in good health, good relationship with others households, and safe and convenient life. The method of finding jobs abroad was related to working security of migrant labourers and happiness of the migrant labour households.

Feasibility Analysis and “Alienated” Expression of Qu Qiubai’s View of Happiness

It has both theoretical and practical significance on the study of Qu Qiubai’s heart path from the perspective of happiness. So the key points of this thesis are the existence of Qu Qiubai’s view of happiness, the necessity of the research and the foresight of its development. On the basis of previous research, the study eventually forms a prospective analysis of the relevant research and the conclusion of the existence of Qu Qiubai’s “alienated” happiness. “Alienated” happiness is a kind of happy expression which has the characteristics of Chinese traditional Taoist theory. It is not only a kind of happy attribute, but also a form of happy practice. Qu Qiubai’s “alienated” happiness is attributed to the special identity and temperament of his “scholar leader”, which is formed in the elastic wisdom that his alienation is consciously transformed into the pursuit power and the catalytic element.

Multidimensional Poverty Index and Happiness

In recent years, income concepts have been criticized for being too narrow to capture human well-being. The broader “objective” capability approach and subjective well-being analyses have been highlighted as most prominent approaches which allow for well-being assessments beyond income. Recently, a combination of the capability and of the subjective well-being approach has been recommended to strengthen well-being analyses. Our paper further explores the relations of both approaches. Based upon micro data covering more than 2300 individuals from four villages in rural Karnataka (India), the paper empirically analyses to which degree objective capability deprivation reflected by the United Nations Development Programme’s Multidimensional Poverty Index coincides with reduced happiness. We find positive correlations between Multidimensional Poverty Index deprivation and lack of happiness for some dimensions; otherwise the correlation is weak for the majority of Multidimensional Poverty Index indicators. Our results suggest that “relativity” towards other villagers is crucial for happiness. Moreover, from a happiness perspective our findings show the necessity to integrate financial deprivation indicators and further “missing dimensions” of deprivation into the Multidimensional Poverty Index. Furthermore, it may be fruitful to measure multidimensional poverty on a household and individual level.

What are people saying when they report they are happy or life satisfied

<p><span lang="EN-GB">The study of happiness was dominated with the model of subjective well-being. With the advent of positive psychology the eudaimonic and hedonic models entered the field, but major surveys continue to use single-item measures of life satisfaction or happiness. We study the associations between life satisfaction and happiness, measured single-items with a graphic representation of a ladder and a thermometer, and three models of happiness: the subjective well-being, the eudaimonic and hedonic. The results showed that subjective well-being was the main predictor of life satisfaction and hedonic model also predicted a small amount of this variable. For happiness the predictors were the same but in reversed order, the main predictor was the hedonic model and a small variance was explained by subjective well-being. Contrary to our hypothesis the eudaimonic perspective of happiness was not a predictor in none of the models. These results underline the importance of the interaction between a cognitive or appraisal perspective and the hedonic perspectives for the study of happiness.</span></p>

Can We Increase Psychological Well-Being? The Effects of Interventions on Psychological Well-Being: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

BackgroundThere is a rapidly growing interest in psychological well-being (PWB) as outcome of interventions. Ryff developed theory-based indicators of PWB that are consistent with a eudaimonic perspective of happiness. Numerous interventions have been developed with the aim to increase PWB. However, the effects on PWB measured as coherent outcome have not been examined across studies yet. This meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of behavioral interventions aims to answer the question whether it is possible to enhance PWB.MethodsA systematic literature search was performed in PsycINFO, Cochrane and Web of Science. To be included, studies had to be randomized controlled trials of behavioral interventions with psychological well-being as primary or secondary outcome measure, measured with either Ryff’s Psychological Well-Being Scales or the Mental Health Continuum—Short Form. The meta-analysis was performed using a random effects model. From the 2,298 articles found, 27 met the inclusion criteria. The included studies involved 3,579 participants.ResultsWe found a moderate effect (Cohen’s d = 0.44; z = 5.62; p < .001). Heterogeneity between the studies was large (Q (26) = 134.12; p < .001; I2 = 80.62). At follow-up after two to ten months, a small but still significant effect size of 0.22 was found. There was no clear indication of publication bias. Interventions were more effective in clinical groups and when they were delivered individually. Effects were larger in studies of lower quality.ConclusionsIt appears to be possible to improve PWB with behavioral interventions. The results are promising for the further development and implementation of interventions to promote PWB. Delivering interventions face-to-face seems to be the most promising option. We recommend to keep including clinical groups in the research of psychological well-being. Heterogeneity is a limitation of the study and there is need for more high-quality studies.

Worlds of Welfare Capitalism and Wellbeing: A Multilevel Analysis

AbstractSocial scientists in the comparative policy tradition have long argued that welfare systems in modern capitalist societies can be broken down into ideal types. The idea of different worlds of welfare capitalism has an enduring appeal and growing practical policy relevance as governments seek to enhance population wellbeing. In this paper, we explore the worlds of welfare theory from the perspective of happiness. Drawing on data from theWorld Values Survey, we examine how welfare regimes may contribute to wellbeing and we consider the significance of our findings for the development of social policy. By using multilevel models, it is possible to separate out effects due to observed and unobserved, as well as both individual-level and country-level, welfare state characteristics and we can make inferences to the distribution of social wellbeing across welfare typologies. We find that respondents living in liberal and conservative countries experience at least twice the odds of unhappiness of those living in social democracies, after controlling for individual- and country-level explanatory variables. The observed differences between the worlds of welfare were found to be highly statistically significant.

Kuasa Hak Ijbar terhadap Anak Perempuan Perspektif Fiqh dan HAM

This article discusses the rights of carers based on the opinions ijbar priest sect. Authorization rights ijbar guardian provide more authority for a guardian to marry off their daughters without first asking approval from the child. This is because a guardian is considered the most knowledgeable people about what is best for his daughter, so this happiness perspective formulated by the guardian. Women are considered not proficient in formulating the best things for him. Therefore, her consent is not a priority. In this case a gap between girls and parents, where full power is finally monopolize the interests of women. Right ijbar guardian has the potential to cause various kinds of violence against women which was distanced from the goals of marriage itself. Luckily the Marriage Law in Indonesia does not recognize the concept of rights ijbar. Just as education in the pesantren, one of the institutions of informal education, education curriculum was introduced that the materials are biased patriarchy. Book uqud dul lujain for example, used as the principal study on marriage presented with even marginalize women disproportionately.

Narratives of Life: Storytelling in the Perspective of Happiness and Disaster

At the University of Zurich we are currently conducting a narrative study with elderly people. On the basis of biographical narratives, the study aims to assess how elderly people, in reminiscing about their lives, structure in narrative the experiences that were significant for them, including both experiences of happiness, fulfillment, or joy, and experiences of unhappiness, failure, loss, harm, or disaster. Analysis of individual narratives seems to support the hypothesis that has been formulated in biography research that life review is worthwhile for elderly persons, as it can contribute towards improved quality of life.
