Abstract

Abstract The objective of this study was to ascertain whether happiness varies depending on sports participation and religious practice. The sample comprised 2,378 participants aged between 18 and 92 years. All analysis were carried out by testing the interaction effects of the variables of sex and age on sports participation, religious practice, and happiness. We found a high average level of happiness (M = 7.299, range 0–10). However, people who do not participate in sports or practice a religion indicated a level of happiness (M = 6.979) that was statistically lower than that of the other groups: people who practice a religion but do not participate in sports (M = 7.135); people who participate in sports but do not practice a religion (M = 7.478); and people who both participate in sports and practice a religion (M = 7.717). We conclude that happiness is associated with sports participation and religious practice, although with small or very small effect sizes (all p< 0.050; η2p between 0.008 and 0.020).

参加体育运动和信仰宗教与幸福程度有关

摘要:本研究的目的是确定幸福感是否随体育运动和宗教信仰的不同而变化。样本包括2378名年龄在18岁到92岁之间的参与者。所有的分析都是通过测试性别和年龄变量对体育参与、宗教实践和幸福的相互作用来进行的。我们发现幸福的平均水平很高(M = 7.299，范围0-10)。然而，不参加体育运动或信仰宗教的人的幸福水平(M = 6.979)在统计上低于其他群体:信仰宗教但不参加体育运动的人(M = 7.135);参加体育运动但不信仰宗教的人(M = 7.478);同时参加体育运动和信仰宗教的人(M = 7.717)。我们得出的结论是，幸福感与体育活动和宗教活动有关，尽管效应值很小或非常小(p< 0.050;η2p在0.008和0.020之间)。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
