“…A large and growing body of literature has shown that a positive association existed between happiness and emotional intelligence ( 14 - 16 ). Similarly, Griess ( 17 ) concluded that happiness was positively associated with optimism and hopefulness among students. Other studies have shown that happiness has been positively associated with perceived life satisfaction, high level of emotional intelligence, good interpersonal ties, and negatively associated with anger, depression, and anxiety ( 5 ).…”

“…The results showed that when students were raised with a democratic parenting style, the students' level of optimism was more developed than students who thought that they were raised through other parenting styles [32]. The finding of Griess is in line with this study; although measuring authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive parenting styles, the results show that the democratic parenting style perceived by students contributes to higher levels of optimism than the authoritarian parenting style [32]. On the other hand, the impact of implementing democratic parenting makes children tend to feel safe, have self-control, and be able to rely on themselves.…”

“…Örneğin Aydın, Sarı ve Şahin (2014) üniversite öğrencileri ile yaptıkları araştırmada anne babadan algılanan kabul/ilgi düzeyi arttıkça bireylerin umut düzeylerinin arttığını belirlemiştir. Griess (2010) üniversite öğrencileri ile yaptığı araştırmada yetkili ebeveynlik tarzına sahip bireylerin yüksek umut düzeyine sahip olduğunu bulmuştur. Benzer şekilde ebeveyn kabul/ilgi/sevgi tutumları ile umut arasında genel olarak olumlu bir ilişki olduğunu belirleyen bazı araştırmalar (Heaven ve Ciarrochi, 2008;Karababa, 2018;Türkmen ve Demirli, 2011) bulunmaktadır.…”
