Components of Life Satisfaction of Older Texans: A Multidimensional ModelHolley, Mary R. 08 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between majority and ethnic status and life satisfaction. Several studies have examined the relationship between race and life satisfaction. The comparisons have been between Anglos and Blacks, and no previous research has included Anglos, Blacks, and Mexican-Americans in studying the effect of majority and ethnic status on life satisfaction. The findings suggest that multidimensional models are feasible to measure life satisfaction of elderly individuals of different racial or ethnic groups. Furthermore, on the basis of this study future research should include the variable, transportation, in any multivariate analysis of life satisfaction.

Gamers och Esportares självskattade livstillfredsställelse : En kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie / Gamers and Esport players - Self-assessed life satisfaction : A quantitative cross-sectional studyEngberg, David January 2024 (has links)
En kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie som undersökts via en digital frågeenkät i syfte att se omdet fanns en korrelation mellan antal spelade timmar och självuppskattad livstillfredsställelsebland gamers och esportare.Livstillfredsställelse beskrivs enligt Kobau et al. (2010) som “Ett dynamiskt och relativttillstånd där man maximerar sin fysiska, mentala och sociala funktion i samband med stödjandemiljöer för att leva ett fullständigt, tillfredsställande och produktivt liv”. Denna definition går isamma linje som World Health Organization WHO (2012) definition av livskvalité. Till grundför studien ligger den exponentiella tillväxten inom spelbranschen med sina 3,22 miljarderdeltagare, där man kan anse att forskningen för dess potentiella negativa och positiva effekter ärobalanserade och fokuserade på olika områden och avgörande faktorer.I studien deltog 51 respondenter varav 49 med kompletta enkätsvar. Den insamlade datananalyserades med hjälp av statistikprogrammet SPSS och analysverktyget Spearmansrankkorrelationskoefficient.Studiens resultat visade på att det inte finns en signifikant korrelation mellan antalspelade timmar och självuppskattad livstillfredsställelse bland gamers och esportare. Resultatetgår alltså inte i hand med stora delar av tidigare forskning. Framtida forskning bör därför iakttapotentiella bakomliggande faktorer till gamers och esportares livstillfredsställelse, så som detsociala umgänget via Discord och Teamspeak där större delar av gamers och esportarekommunicerar och socialiserar sig i samband med spelandet. / A quantitative cross-sectional study investigated via a digital questionnaire in order to see whether there was a correlation between number of hours played and self-rated life satisfaction among gamers and esports players. Life satisfaction is described according to Kobau et al. (2010) as “A dynamic and relative condition in which one maximizes one's physical, mental and social functioning in connection with supporting environments to live a full, fulfilling and productive life”. This definition goes into the same line as the World Health Organization WHO (2012) definition of quality of life. Basis for the study, the exponential growth lies within the gaming industry with its 3.22 billion participants, where one can consider the research for its potential negative and positive effects unbalanced and focused on different areas and decisive factors. 51 respondents took part in the study, of which 49 provided complete survey responses. The collected data was analyzed using the statistical program SPSS and the analysis tool Spearmans rank correlation coefficient.The results of the study showed that there is no significant correlation between numbers hours played and self-rated life satisfaction among gamers and esports players. The result thus does not go hand in hand with large parts of previous research. Future research should therefore take note potential underlying factors to gamers' and esporters' life satisfaction, such as that social interaction via Discord and Teamspeak where larger parts of gamers and esports playerscommunicates and socializes in connection with playing.

Graduation, Sport Retirement, and Athletic Identity: Moderating Effects of Social Support on Collegiate Athletes' Life Satisfaction and Alcohol UseKiefer, Heather R. 07 1900 (has links)
Retirement from sport is a process that unfolds over time in which athletes have varied experiences, ranging from seamless transition to psychological distress. Researchers have sought to understand the variables (i.e., athletic identity, social support) that contribute to successful or unsuccessful transitions, with athletic identity being one of the most frequently mentioned. Athletes who strongly identify with the athlete role at the time of retirement are more at risk for adverse retirement outcomes (i.e., mental health concerns, identity concerns, substance use). To date, few studies have examined the moderating effect of coping resources, such as social support, on athletic identity at the time of retirement. The purpose of this study was two-fold. First, we found that student-athletes who graduated and retired had lower athletic identity, higher alcohol use, and less perceived social support than their peers who continued competing four months after graduation. Second, we longitudinally examined the relationship of athletic identity and social support to the psychological well-being (i.e., life satisfaction and binge drinking) of collegiate student athletes who retired from sport. Neither T1 athletic identity nor T1 social support, nor their interaction, were related to T2 life satisfaction or T2 alcohol use in the retired student-athletes after controlling for gender and the respective T1 variables. Further, being female and T1 life satisfaction were the only significant predictors for T2 life satisfaction; T1 alcohol use was the only predictor of T2 alcohol use. Implications of the findings, limitations, and future directions are discussed.

Neural correlates of life satisfaction : A systematic reviewTalic, Erna, Värk, Kadri January 2024 (has links)
Life satisfaction is a key aspect of subjective well-being (SWB) and is often referred to as an individual’s cognitive assessment of their overall life. Measured by tools such as the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), life satisfaction is crucial for reliably assessing SWB. It serves as a stable measure, reflecting long-term judgements of SWB - unlike affect measures that capture more short-term judgements influenced by situational variability. While the SWLS demonstrates internal consistency, the neural correlates of life satisfaction remain largely unknown, limiting our comprehension of SWB’s cognitive dimension. This systematic review aims to bridge the gap by comprehensively examining relevant literature, emphasizing resting-state neuroimaging studies. Despite methodological differences, the authors discovered relationships between brain structures and life satisfaction, revealing a spectrum of associations ranging from positive to negative, alongside correlations with varying strengths. These structures include the left SFG, bilateral MFG, frontoinsular cortex, and other areas correlated with microstructural connections, including the SPL, IPL and TPJ. Considering the novelty and limited establishment of this subject, ongoing research is crucial for uncovering the precise neural correlates of life satisfaction.

Är du nöjd med ditt liv? : -Relationen mellan perfektionism, självmedkänsla, upplevd stress och livstillfredsställelse / Are you satisfied with your life? : -The relationship between perfectionism, self-compassion, perceived stress, and lifesatisfactionPeterson, Jessica, Bodén, Linnea January 2024 (has links)
Life satisfaction among students is a complex phenomenon linked to avariety of factors. This study aimed to examine the relationshipbetween perfectionism, self-compassion, perceived stress, and lifesatisfaction. The aim was also to examine how well the threevariables perfectionism, self-compassion, and perceived stress predictlife satisfaction. The sample consisted of 154 students (Mage = 24.84,SDage = 5.09). Quantitative data was collected through an onlinesurvey where respondents were asked to answer statements andquestions linked to the scales: Clinical Perfectionism Questionnaire,Self-Compassion Scale Short Form, Perceived Stress Scale, andSatisfaction With Life Scale. The results showed that there is astatistically significant relationship between perfectionism,self-compassion, perceived stress, and life satisfaction. The resultsalso showed that self-compassion and perceived stress are statisticallysignificant predictors of life satisfaction. Perfectionism, on the otherhand, is not a statistically significant predictor. Future researchshould use longitudinal studies as a complement, examine morevariables that may be related to life satisfaction, and conductmoderation and mediation analyses. / Livstillfredsställelse bland studenter är ett komplext fenomen kopplattill en mängd olika faktorer. Den här studien syftade till att undersökasambandet mellan perfektionism, självmedkänsla, upplevd stress ochlivstillfredsställelse. Syftet var även att undersöka hur väl de trevariablerna perfektionism, självmedkänsla och upplevd stresspredicerar livstillfredsställelse. Urvalet bestod av 154 studenter (Målder= 24.84, SDålder = 5.09). Kvantitativ data samlades in genom enonline-enkät där respondenterna fick besvara delfrågor kopplat tillskalorna: Clinical Perfectionism Questionnaire, Self-CompassionScale Short Form, Perceived Stress Scale och Satisfaction With LifeScale. Resultaten visade att det finns ett statistiskt signifikant sambandmellan perfektionism, självmedkänsla, upplevd stress ochlivstillfredsställelse. Resultaten visade även att självmedkänsla ochupplevd stress är statistiskt signifikanta prediktorer förlivstillfredsställelse. Perfektionism är däremot inte en statistisktsignifikant prediktor. Framtida forskning bör komplettera medlongitudinella studier, undersöka fler variabler som kan tänkas vararelaterade till livstillfredsställelse och genomföra moderations- ochmediationsanalyser.

Factors associated with self- and informant ratings of quality of life, well-being and life satisfaction in people with mild-to-moderate dementia: results from the Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life programmeWu, Y-T., Nelis, S.M., Quinn, Catherine, Martyr, A., Jones, I.R., Victor, C.R., Knapp, M., Henderson, C., Hindle, J.V., Jones, R.W., Kopelman, M.D., Morris, R.G., Pickett, J.A., Rusted, J.M., Thom, J.M., Litherland, R., Matthews, F.E., Clare, L., IDEAL Programme team 18 February 2020 (has links)
Yes / a large number of studies have explored factors related to self- and informant ratings of quality of life in people with dementia, but many studies have had relatively small sample sizes and mainly focused on health conditions and dementia symptoms. The aim of this study is to compare self- and informant-rated quality of life, life satisfaction and well-being, and investigate the relationships of the two different rating methods with various social, psychological and health factors, using a large cohort study of community-dwelling people with dementia and carers in Great Britain.
Methods: this study included 1,283 dyads of people with mild-to-moderate dementia and their primary carers in the Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life study. Multivariate modelling was used to investigate associations of self- and informant-rated quality of life, life satisfaction and well-being with factors in five domains: psychological characteristics and health; social location; capitals, assets and resources; physical fitness and health; and managing everyday life with dementia.
Results: people with dementia rated their quality of life, life satisfaction and well-being more highly than did the informants. Despite these differences, the two approaches had similar relationships with social, psychological and physical health factors in the five domains.
Conclusion: although self- and informant ratings differ, they display similar results when focusing on factors associated with quality of life, life satisfaction and well-being. Either self- or informant ratings may offer a reasonable source of information about people with dementia in terms of understanding associated factors. / The IDEAL study’ was funded jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) through grant ES/L001853/2. The IDEAL-2 study’ is funded by Alzheimer’s Society, grant number 348, AS-PR2-16-001.

The role of subjective social status in living well for carers of people with dementia: findings from the Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life (IDEAL) programmeVictor, C.R., Rippon, I., Quinn, Catherine, Martyr, A., Clare, L. 15 February 2021 (has links)
Yes / We investigated how carers of people with dementia evaluate their standing in their community and wider society, and if this is related to ‘living well’. We used baseline data from the Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life programme and found that carers rated their standing in society higher than in their local community. Higher evaluations of both were associated with enhanced life satisfaction, well-being and quality of life. Initiatives that increase support or engagement in the community or wider society may help to increase carers’ perceptions of their social status, enhancing their ability to ‘live well’. / The IDEAL study was funded jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) through grant ES/L001853/2. The ESRC is part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). ‘Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life: a longitudinal perspective on living well with dementia. The IDEAL-2 study’ was funded by the Alzheimer’s Society, grant number 348, AS-PR2-16-001.
