“…During adolescence, in its intermediate and final stages of development (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20), young people establish a new identity and new relationship patterns, progressing towards the determination of a cohesive identity, with goals and commitments (26) . For young people who are part of this study sample, no significant association was found between the SBH and age and gender, which is corroborated in a study with Brazilian population, in which positivity was more related to individual characteristics than to sociodemographic characteristics (7) . This contrasts with the studies carried out by Matos and the team of the Social Adventure Project (Projeto Aventura Social), with Portuguese adolescents, in which the female gender reported being less happy more frequently (14) .…”

“…However, the subjectivity of being happy (SBH) is an attitude and a consequence. It is a subjective concept, appearing in the scientific literature associated to subjective well-being that highlights the perception of happiness, life satisfaction and the positive relationship of balance between emotions and is difficult to measure, although in the last years different instruments have been validated to interpret scientific findings (7)(8)(9)(10) . Positivity emerges as a protective factor for the adolescent's healthy development, being associated with self-esteem, satisfaction with life, optimism, subjective happiness and self-efficacy (8,(11)(12) .…”

“…Positivity emerges as a protective factor for the adolescent's healthy development, being associated with self-esteem, satisfaction with life, optimism, subjective happiness and self-efficacy (8,(11)(12) . Positive humor appears to be associated with happiness as mediators of the relation of interpersonal and social aspects to health, even though other factors may influence it, such as social support, physical exercise, work, optimism and education (7,13) .…”

“…(1) sociodemographic determinants -age, sex, schooling; the studies are not consensual about their relationship with SBH, because some point to a relation with the individual characteristics and others to sociodemographic characteristics -sex (7,12,14) ; (2) the school context -positive academic performance and involvement in school are influenced by life satisfaction, social support from teachers, parental involvement, peer groups and the self (e.g. school competence and social acceptance) and are crucial to SBH (7,15) ; (3) the family context -adolescents pointed to the defining characteristics of happiness: interpersonal relationships and daily life, which included the events of daily life and the family; positive emotions and feelings; satisfaction and fulfillment, including satisfaction itself; achievement of objectives; harmony and balance; well-being; and meaning/value. Families assume a special importance as the first support and safe base, as well as roles of protecting adolescents, from which they explore the world.…”

“…Families assume a special importance as the first support and safe base, as well as roles of protecting adolescents, from which they explore the world. There is a tendency to associate abstract feelings and concrete needs with happiness, for example, family conflicts and setbacks triggering unpleasant emotions (7,(16)(17)(18) ; in addition, there are also peer groups -the quality of friendships is central to the young person's social, emotional and cognitive development. Being satisfied with their personal life, being sociable, popular and proactive are factors that facilitate interpersonal relationships, allowing them to be integrated into the group and reducing the risk of victimization (19)(20) .…”

Objectives: to assess the relation between sociodemographic characteristics of young people associated with the subjectivity of being happy; to evaluate the relationship between the subjectivity of being happy and the perception of health status; to evaluate the relationship between the subjectivity of being happy and the school and family environments and peer groups at school. Methods: this is an observational study, with an intentional sample of 1,069 young Portuguese people, with ages varying from 14 to 24, most of them women, attending secondary education. The self-filling questionnaire was used. Results: there are statistically significant associations between the subjectivity of being happy and schooling, perception of health status, family APGAR, school and family involvement, absence of problems or teasing by peers at school. Conclusions: a positive and holistic care coupled with the potential of obtaining and consolidating healthy lifestyles for young people will enable health professionals to perceive them as agents of individual and social change.

Personal values are broad motivational goals that have been found to have systematic relations with subjective wellbeing in adults. Values that promote higher subjective wellbeing are considered healthy while those that hamper it are considered unhealthy (Schwartz & Sortheix, 2018). However, little is known about these relations in children. This pre-registered study examined (1) whether the values of children (6 to 12 years of age) relate to their subjective wellbeing and (2) whether these relations are moderated or mediated by perceived social support from parents, teachers, classmates, and close friends. These research questions were examined with a sample of 738 primary school students (50% female). Our results show that healthy growth values were positively related to subjective wellbeing overall, and for the subgroups of girls and children 9 to 12 years but not boys and children 6 to 8 years; however, unhealthy anxiety values were only negatively associated with subjective wellbeing for girls. While perceived social support partially mediated relations between growth values and subjective wellbeing, the direct values-wellbeing relations accounted for over half the variance. Interestingly, this study also found that growth values positively, and anxiety values negatively, influenced perceived social support from all referents. While perceived social support did not moderate values-wellbeing relations in the overall sample, differences were found in the way perceived social support moderated these relations in some age and gender subgroups. Taken together, these findings suggest that healthy growth values positively influence subjective wellbeing in middle childhood, even after accounting for perceived social support.
