Mår vi bra av våra arbeten? : En kvantitativ studie om sambandet mellan anställdas självskattade arbetsbelastning och välbefinnande / Do we feel good about our work? : A quantitative study about our self-rated workload and well-beingMikkola, Emily January 2022 (has links)
Denna studie ämnar undersöka om det existerar ett samband mellan självskattad arbetsbelastning och välbefinnande. Ytterligare ämnar studien undersöka hur stort detta samband är och i vilken riktning sambandet är. Tidigare undersökningar visar att nästan alla svaranden ansåg att normen på arbetsplatsen var att ha en hög arbetsbelastning och att de inte vågade ta upp sina bekymmer kring arbetsbelastning och välbefinnande. Ytterligare visar forskning att en tredjedel av svaranden upplevde en mycket hög arbetsbelastning. Detta är därmed ett aktuellt problem. För att undersöka syftet har en enkätundersökning genomförts med 60 respondenter mellan åldrarna 20–64 (M=34.07; SD=11.48), varav alla hade ett arbete. Resultatet visar att det existerar ett signifikant samband mellan självskattad arbetsbelastning och välbefinnande. Sambandet indikerar att låga skattningar på välbefinnande är relaterat till höga skattningar på arbetsbelastning. Resultatet visar även att det existerar olika bakgrundsfaktorer som påverkar välbefinnandet, dessa faktorer är ålder och om den anställda är heltidsanställd eller deltidsanställd. Slutsatserna är att det existerar ett signifikant samband mellan självskattad arbetsbelastning och välbefinnande på en måttlig nivå. Ytterligare slutsatser är att välbefinnandet även påverkas av anställdas ålder och typ av anställning.

Can mindfulness and nostalgia raise adolescents’ happiness and subjective well-being? : A quantitative study on the effects of using nostalgia and mindfulness as methods to raise happiness and subjective well-being amongst adolescents.Paoli, Jason January 2015 (has links)
Worldwide, 450 million people are estimated to have a mental health problem. Therefore this study set out with the aim to fill the gap in research on how to raise happiness and subjective well-being amongst adolescents. The sample of the study consisted of 90 students ranging from 16 - 19 years of age. They were randomly assigned to one of two methods; BPS (Best Personal Self) or nostalgia. Each group was then given varying instructions on a task they would perform on a daily basis, with tests taken on the first and last day of the study. The tests consisted of questions from the PANAS (Positive and Negative Affect Scale) and the SWLS (Satisfaction with Life Scale), which would determine the different methods short- and long-term effect on the participants happiness and subjective well-being. A control group was used to compare the results of the test groups. The results indicated nostalgia as being the most effective way to raise short-term well-being amongst adolescents, which raised interesting questions for future studies.

The relationship between experiences in the South African special forces and current levels of well-being and sense of coherenceMoorcroft, Harold Sean 15 May 2007 (has links)
War inevitably impacts on the lives of soldiers who participate in them. The impact often suggests a negative nature, leaving some soldiers with permanent physical and emotional scars. Some soldiers will return from war suffering from several psychological disorders as the result of their exposure to combat trauma. Pathologies such as post-traumatic stress disorders, anxiety and mood disorders are not uncommon. Yet, for others war has provided them with numerous positive experiences from which they can find meaning for themselves. It was Aaron Antonovsky who developed the idea of salutogenesis, mainly focussing on the psychological factors that allow individuals to find meaning in their adversity. This study attempts to investigate the impact of service rendered in the South African Special Forces during the Angolan war on current levels of well-being and sense of coherence amongst former Special Forces members. It is commonly known that these soldiers were exposed to severe battle related conditions, often working behind enemy lines for unknown periods of time whilst being self-reliant. It would seem that most of these soldiers have adapted adequately to society 15 years after their participation in the Angolan war (South Africa’s “Border War”). Some of these soldiers have achieved success in many different ways after leaving Special Forces. Some have embarked into the world of business and others chose professional careers and then there are those who became successful entrepreneurs. A sample of 32 respondents was collected. All of the respondents were members of the South African Special Forces during the Angolan war but have resigned since. The respondents were requested to complete a questionnaire consisting of a biographical information section, Antonovsky’s 13-item Orientation to Life Questionnaire (OLQ) and Diener’s Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). The purpose was to determine the respondents’ current sense of coherence and level of well-being and to determine to what extent service in Special Forces has contributed to these levels. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Inferential statistics included Chi-square, Fisher’s exact test, Spearman correlation coefficient and the t-test. Analysis of data suggests that the sample currently measures high on both levels of sense of coherence and well-being. The means of both OLQ and SWLS of this sample compare higher to any other samples they were administered to. However, statistically no clear correlation could be determined between service rendered in Special Forces and current levels of well-being. Respondents did however indicate that they feel that their service in Special Forces did have a positive impact on their lives and their current levels of functioning. / Dissertation (MA (Clinical Psychology))--University of Pretoria, 2007. / Psychology / unrestricted

Subjective well-being and self-esteem in a disadvantaged communityMaluka, Constance Sarah 11 1900 (has links)
As people meet their basic biological needs, they become increasingly concerned with higher level needs, such as personal development and positive well-being. The term "subjective well-being" (SWB) refers to people's evaluations of their lives and although relatively stable, people's levels of SWB are influenced by life events. The high position of esteem needs in Maslow's hierarchy of needs reflects the importance of self-esteem in people's judgement of their quality of life. A one group post test only, analytical research design was utilised with 570 residents of an informal settlement in Soweto. A structured questionnaire was designed to obtain information on demographic variables, levels of SWB and levels of self-esteem. The levels of SWB and self-esteem within the community were relatively high. Multiple regression analyses models confirmed that demographic factors are weakly correlated with SWB and self-esteem. Self-esteem was highly correlated with life satisfaction. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)
