This study aimed to explore the effects of different types of social participation on the components of well-being, as well as the differences according to sex in the relationship between social participation and well-being. This was a cross-sectional community study. Well-being was measured using the positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment (PERMA) profile. Social participation included activities of daily life, sports and entertainment activities, and social service activities. The independent association between each type of social participation and the components of well-being was examined by using a network analysis in both males and females. Of all 1276 participants surveyed, 60% were females. The results of the network analysis showed that positive emotion–housework (0.263), positive emotion–games (0.102), engagement–housework (0.107), engagement–work (0.054), and meaning–socializing (0.085) had unique connections in males; the average predictability in the network was 0.417. For females, positive emotion–physical activity (0.102), engagement–associations or societies (0.071), relationships–physical (0.090), relationships–socializing (0.092), and relationships–volunteering activities (0.133) had significant connections; the average predictability in the network was 0.358. Different types of social participation may have different effects on the components of well-being. Furthermore, differences according to sex in the relationship between social participation and well-being should be considered when formulating interventions to improve well-being.

“…Studies on teachers show that well-being at work is correlated with happiness and optimism (Kun & Gadanecz, 2019). Another empirical investigation carried out on technological employees demonstrates the impact of workplace well-being on subjective well-being via flow as the overall feeling that employees feel when they are fully engaged (Chang & Hsu, 2022). This means that a very good or less good job affects subjective well-being.…”

The study looks into the validation and analysis of the psychometric properties of the Techno-Work Engagement Scale (TechnoWES-9) in the case of a sample of Romanian employees (N=280). The scale is based on the concept of work engagement and evaluates the well-being generated by the use of technology at the workplace. The tool includes three factors: techno-vigor, techno-dedication, and techno-absorption, each with three items. The factorial structure was verified through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and the reliability of the scale was examined from the perspective of its internal consistency. The concurrent validity was performed by associating scales that assess subjective well-being. The CFA supports the tri-factorial structure of the scale. The internal consistency of the total score is excellent. TechnoWES-9 is positively associated with subjective well-being, life satisfaction, and positive affect. None of the dimensions of the scale correlates with negative affect. The study suggests that the Romanian version of TechnoWES-9 is an adequate measure for the assessment of well-being of Romanian employees working in digital technology.

“…This concept is further developed by introducing eudaimonic well-being ( Ryan and Deci, 2001 ; Deci and Ryan, 2006 ). Existing literature has studied different factors related to subjective well-being from multiple aspects ( Kor et al, 2019 ; Arslan and Yıldırım, 2021 ; Chang and Hsu, 2022 ; Yan et al, 2022 ; Yang et al, 2022 ). Among them, the relationship between subjective well-being and health is one of the most important areas.…”

This paper uses a large-scale nationally representative dataset, the Chinese General Social Survey, to examine the relationship between subjective well-being and depressive disorders. Statistical results indicate that higher levels of subjective well-being help decrease perceived depression. Robustness checks are carried out using different types of explanatory and dependent variables, various regression models, penalized machine learning methods, instrumental variable approaches, and placebo tests, all of which lend further credence to the above findings. Based on it, heterogeneities in the relationship between subjective well-being and self-rated mental disorders are explored. In respect of variations in age cohorts, it is found that the absolute values of happiness’s estimated coefficients are smaller in the 20–30 and 30–40 age groups, while that in the 40–50 age group increase substantially. In older cohorts, the estimates remain at higher levels while fluctuating to some degree. Furthermore, the significantly negative interaction between happiness and age proves that age amplifies subjective well-being’s effect on perceived depressive disorders. With age increasing, the impact of happiness on reducing perceived depression tends to be stronger. Therefore, for older people, subjective well-being plays a more important role in suppressing self-rated depression. Heterogeneities of the relationship between happiness and perceived depressive disorders in subgroups with different demographic characteristics are also investigated. It is found that the negative correlation between subjective well-being and self-rated depression is stronger among those with higher educational levels, living in urban areas, being members of the Communist Party of China, having pensions, and owning more housing assets. However, gender, ethnic identity, religious belief, and marital status exert no significant moderating effects.
