“…Hope may also play a vital role in setting one's purpose in life, thereby, potentially supporting well-being (Ciarrochi et al, 2007;Burrow et al, 2010;Parker et al, 2015;Årdal et al, 2018). Hope is also related to various factors such as life satisfaction (Munoz et al, 2017), resilience (Li et al, 2016;Lenz, 2021), academic achievement (Marques et al, 2011(Marques et al, , 2017Bryce et al, 2020), and subjective well-being (Zhang and Chen, 2018). Further, in the existing literature, significant associations have been found between hope, emotional well-being (Griggs and Crawford, 2017), and psychological well-being (Dilmaç and Kocaman, 2019).…”

A substantial body of evidence supports Lerner and colleagues’ 5Cs model of positive youth development (PYD) in the United States (U.S.). Nonetheless, it remains unclear whether the 5Cs can be used to identify positive development in the under-researched Asian contexts, such as Malaysia. Thus, this study examined the 5Cs of PYD (competence, confidence, character, connection, and caring) and their importance to purpose in life, hope, and well-being in a sample of emerging adult undergraduate university students in Malaysia. Data were collected from 400 participants from 15 Malaysian universities (132 males, 268 females; ages ranged from 18 to 26 years old, M = 22). A hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that two of the 5Cs of PYD (confidence and connection) as well as hope were important to explaining variation in well-being. The findings imply that there are strong links between PYD, especially confidence and connection, and well-being, while purpose in life and hope were indirectly related to the 2Cs (confidence and connection) of PYD and well-being. Therefore, mental health professionals are encouraged to review and redefine their treatment design to include confidence, connection, purpose in life and hope when working with Malaysian emerging adult university students.

“…SWLS [ 52 , 53 ] is the most widely used self-report questionnaire to measure “satisfaction with his/her own life” in female IVO as well as in IVV [ 54 ]. The SWLS consists of 5 items rated on a 7-point Likert scale (ranging from 1 = “strongly disagree” to 7 = “strongly agree” ).…”

Background: This research investigates the two sides of violence by profiling female interpersonal violence offenders (IVO) and female interpersonal violence victims (IVV). These groups of women have been compared on three key variables within the context of violence: satisfaction with life (SWL), alexithymia, and relational styles—defined according to the Relational Competence Theory (RCT). Regarding the latter, the experience of functional or dysfunctional relational styles in childhood and adult relationships has been evaluated and compared with both groups of women. Methods: This study involved 131 women: IVO (n = 41; enrolled in a penitentiary), IVV (n = 41; enrolled in an anti-violence center), and a control group (CG; n = 49; enrolled from the general population). Profile analysis was performed. Results: Female IVO showed low SWL, high levels of alexithymia, and a pattern of mixed relational styles with both parents and the current partner. Female IVV revealed low SWL, low levels of alexithymia and dysfunctional relational styles with both parents and current partner. Women from the CG showed high SWL, absence of alexithymia and functional relational styles with both parents and current partner. Conclusions: The profiles outlined in this study are extremely informative regarding alexithymia, relational styles, and SWL in both female IVV and IVO. Clinical interventions for both groups of women should be developed relying on these results.

“…The SWLS also utilizes a Likert scale with higher scores reflecting greater life satisfaction. The SWLS has consistently demonstrated good internal consistency (Pavot and Diener 2008;Pavot et al 1991;Diener et al 1985) and good validity, with SWLS scores positively correlating with hope (Munoz et al 2017;O'Sullivan 2011;, positive emotions (Diener et al 1991), and perceptions of health (Strine et al 2008). SWLS scores have also negatively correlated with depression, anxiety, and hopelessness (Guney et al 2010).…”

As a medium sized metro area located in the South Central United States, The City of Tulsa has recently devoted substantial municipal efforts toward the aim of enhancing the well-being of Tulsa residents. Well-being literature highlights the importance of life satisfaction, hope, and psychological flourishing but has said little about the origins of these variables or their causal relationship to one another. The current study tested a path model, using social connectedness (SC) to Tulsa as an antecedent to life satisfaction, leading to greater flourishing and hope. In collaboration with area universities, Tulsa Human Rights Commission conducted a survey to measure these variables with 206 residents of the Tulsa community. Covariance based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM) with maximum likelihood estimations was conducted, determining that the hypothesized model was the model of best fit. A subsequent bootstrapping analysis (N = 5000) further supported the theorized model. Results suggest that life satisfaction, flourishing, and hope have social origins, and that a sense of SC to a metro area, in this case Tulsa, plays an important role in driving variance in those respective variables. Should future research continue to support the theories presented in the current study, such results hold the potential to inform the approach municipal policy makers take to improve the well-being of metro residents, namely, promoting policy initiatives that promote SC to their respective cities as a tool to promote residents' well-being.
