“…While SWB has been found positively related to both agency and communion (Wang, ), the adjustment has also been positively associated with instrumentality and minimally related to expressivity (DiDonato & Berenbaum, ). In other studies femininity and androgyny specifically were significant predictors of PA (Diaz & Bui, ), and androgynous individuals enjoy mental health advantages over those who perceive themselves as possessing characteristics of only one gender (Pauletti et al, ). However, masculinity also influenced well‐being (Wolfram, Mohr, & Borchert, ).…”

“…This also corroborates the androgyny hypothesis, strengthening the idea of the relevance of both masculine and feminine dimensions in improving SWB. Diaz and Bui () indicated that greater feminine and androgynous gender identity were significant predictors of PA. Also, “individuals who are adept at identifying their emotions (Clarity) reported engaging in active, planful coping and in positive reinterpretations of events. Individuals high on Clarity made self‐affirming attributions for good events.” (Gohm & Clore, , p. 1)…”

Background: The link between subjective well-being (SWB), gender and emotional intelligence (EI) has been studied; however, it is not clear what kind of relationship has been established between these variables. The objective of this study was to examine the direct and indirect effects of EI in the relationship between gendertyped attributes and SWB. Method: The participants were 365 Spanish schoolchildren with a mean age of 13.9. The instruments used were the Spanish version of GRI-JUG (GRI-JUG-SP15) for gender-typed attributes, TMMS-24 for EI, PANASN for positive and negative affects, and SWLS for satisfaction with life. A mediational analysis was carried out using EI (attention, repair and clarity) as mediator in order to find out the effects on well-being. Results: The findings yielded that EI significantly mediated the relationship between gender-typed attributes and SWB. Particularly, clarity and repair are positively associated with SWB, whereas attention is negatively associated with SWB. Also, clarity and repair can be considered more important than attention in promoting SWB, according to the models of mediation and their effect size. Moreover, clarity and repair were mediators in feminine and masculine attributes while attention only was mediator for positive feminine attributes. Conclusion: For adolescents who claim to have positive feminine attributes, an aspect that would improve SWB is through the increase of clarity and repair and the decrease in attention. Further research is needed to examine the extent to which the pattern of results generalises in other contexts, and to explore the relevance of negative emotions in the development of affective-related issues.

“…Increasing individuals perceived social support of individuals was increased, they can help them overcome negative emotions (such as fear and anxiety) caused by disasters and injuries [53][54][55]. Perceived social support can improve their self-efficacy [54], positively relate to social goal pursuit [56] and influence life satisfaction [57,58] and well-being [59,60]. Individuals with higher perceived social support are more likely to engage in group activities [61] and have a more robust group identification [62].…”

How to overcome informational conformity consumer behavior when faced with threats of death is a social problem in response to COVID-19. This research is based on the terror management theory, the need to belong theory and the materialism theory. It uses a theoretical model to determine the relationships between threats of death and informational conformity consumer behavior. From 1453 samples collected during outbreak of COVID-19 in China, we used a structural equation model to test multiple research hypotheses. The result shows that threats of death are positively associated with a need to belong, materialism and informational conformity consumer behavior. The need to belong and materialism can play a mediating role between threats of death and information conformity consumption behavior, and perceived social support can play a moderating role between threats of death and information conformity consumption behavior.

“…Since the emergence of subjective well-being, continuous debates occur among social scientists on the appropriate measurement of well-being (Diaz & Bui, 2017). Cummins et al (2003) mentioned that the dimension of wealth was considered the pertinent dimension to measure the goodness of society.…”

The current era of extensive use of information and communication technology and globalization brought the mankind to pay attention to the wellbeing of people as it is paramount for sustainable development of communities. Accordingly, numerous discussions were put forward to conceptualize well-being as such. Judging from the literature, holistic well-being is deemed as a better form of measuring well-being as it incorporates both objective and subjective dimensions. The aim of this study is to examine the holistic well-being of Japanese retirees residing in Malaysia. Data were collected from 278 retirees via a pick-anddrop method as well as face-to-face interviews. The findings show that the holistic well-being of Japanese retirees in Malaysia is 56.3%. Besides, the study has identified that these retirees scored as the highest the dimensions of communication technologies and lifestyle. On the other hand, the lowest scores got the dimensions of political and physical facilities. It is proposed that to further enhance the international retirement migration, particularly in the Malaysian context, political stability and good physical facilities are the pertinent factors that need to be emphasized.
