“…Taken together, the mediating effect of optimism on the association between received intergenerational support and subjective well-being has been identified in the present study. This is in line with previous literature that shows that optimism mediates the relationships between social support and related well-being outcomes [28,57]. One plausible explanation draws from the relational regulation theory proposed by Lakey and Orehek [58], which demonstrates the influencing mechanisms underlying the impact of social support on positive psychological well-being.…”

Even though an extensive body of previous research has examined the association between received intergenerational support and the well-being outcomes of older adults in a wide variety of contexts, few studies have been conducted to explore the impacts of intergenerational support on elders’ subjective well-being, especially the intermediary mechanisms in this process. The purpose of this study is to fill this gap by exploring the mediating role of optimism in the association between received intergenerational support and subjective well-being among the elderly in China, as well as the sex differences that exist between males and females. The findings show that the intergenerational support received from adult children is positively related to subjective well-being and that this relationship is partly mediated by optimism. Meanwhile, no significant sex difference was found in the interrelations between intergenerational support, optimism, and subjective well-being.

“…Another study supported the argument that psychological resilience exerts a mediating effect on the link between family cohesion and adaptability and academic burnout with the cultivation of coping ability and emotional support ( Hou and Liang, 2017 ). Besides, it was found in research among patients and relocating women that perceived social support was positively correlated to overall PsyCap and its components, hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism ( Foote et al, 1990 ; Schönfeld et al, 2017 ; Sagi et al, 2021 ). Furthermore, evidence from the Chinese college students’ sample showed that PsyCap significantly mediated the relationships between perceived social support and subjective wellbeing ( Huang and Zhang, 2021 ).…”

This study aimed to explore the association between the functioning of family environment (i.e., family cohesion and family adaptability) and academic burnout of Chinese college students as well as the mediating effects of the interpersonal resource (i.e., peer support) and intrapersonal resource [i.e., positive psychological capital (PsyCap)] in this relationship. A total of 1971 Chinese undergraduates were involved in an online questionnaire survey and data analysis. It was found that family cohesion and adaptability was negatively related to academic burnout. Mediation analyses demonstrated that family cohesion and adaptability did not directly affect academic burnout, but indirectly through increasing PsyCap (characterized by optimism, hope, resilience, and self-efficacy), and through enhancing peer support and then increasing PsyCap in serial. Meanwhile, the relationship between family cohesion and adaptability and academic burnout was not mediated by peer support alone. These findings highlight the family environment’s crucial role in youth mental health and positive development in the college context.

“…NGOs striving for women's empowerment can also promote such women as role models for others who can be future role models. Furthermore, supplementation of social support to women can help them build an optimistic picture of their future and see meaning in their lives (Sagi et al , 2021) even in challenging times. To this point, we get that social support can be a good trigger for women's well-being which eventually can make them able to fight for their rights in whichever walk of life they move.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore the dynamics behind the violence against the share of women in their inherited land. This study explores the subject matter from the perspective of actual victims and law experts in the domain. Design/methodology/approach Informed by the interpretivist paradigm, the authors studied the subject matter through qualitative inquiry. Through semistructured interviews, data were collected from 16 women who have been deprived of their share in inherited land and 11 law experts who have been dealing with property-related court cases. Findings Thematic analyses through NVivo-11 evinced five themes related to the possible causes of women depriving of their property rights. From the victims’ perspective, the major causes of violence against women’s share in their inherited property rights are fear of income disaggregation, male dominance, forceful gifting, relational bond and fear of physical violence. Law experts’ views on the subject matter were somehow in convergence with the views of the actual victims. They reported a lack of social support, court delays and lack of knowledge about the law as the major causes of violence against women’s inherited property rights. Originality/value A reasonable volume of research is available on the subject of women’s empowerment. However, little attention is paid to investigating the causes of violence against women sharing in their inherited property rights – and suggesting some suitable ways to resolve the problem. Against this backdrop, this study is intended to explore the dynamics behind the violence against the share of women in their inherited land from the perspective of actual victims and law experts in the domain.
