A sample of 1,053 Israeli participants (ages 25–66; 50% females) was surveyed before and during the war, using the war’s onset as a natural experiment to explore the association of SQB with various measures of subjective well-being and anxiety. The findings indicate that despite stable levels of global life evaluation and meaning in life, the war triggered significant shifts in the affective component of subjective well-being, namely, positive and negative emotions. The results show that prewar SQB levels were concurrently positively associated with negative emotions and negatively associated with positive emotions (in addition to global life evaluation and meaning in life). However, a longitudinal effect was found only for negative emotions during the war, even after controlling for prewar negative emotions and other demographic and war-related variables. Similar results were obtained for anxiety: prewar SQB longitudinally predicted higher levels of anxiety during war, after adjusting for a proxy measure of prewar anxiety and other covariates. This indicates that prewar SQB levels are strongly associated with concurrent variation in negative emotions during national trauma, beyond prior levels. The results have substantial economic implications, suggesting that interventions aimed at reducing SQB (e.g., education that empowers individuals to transcend their familiar boundaries and adapt to adverse changes) may enhance emotional resilience in crisis situations, offering valuable insights for policymakers to improve societal well-being in times of upheaval.","PeriodicalId":15837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Happiness Studies","volume":"48 10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147536147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the original theory was criticized for over-relying on individual efforts, leading to the extension of the theory by including external agents (family, peers and spirituality) as sources of hope—a concept known as external locus-of-hope. Although hope was identified as a source of psychological strength, limited data exists on how locus-of-hope, especially external sources, is related to well-being. Self-Determination Theory (SDT) is a promising framework for further investigation of the role of external agents -in addition to the role of personal resources- in goal-achievement. In the goal-attainment process, hope theory addresses “how” people pursue goals rather than “why” goals are pursued, which is the subject of SDT. The present study, by integrating these two perspectives, aims to investigate the relations among locus-of-hope, need satisfaction, and well-being. The longitudinal relations among internal locus-of-hope, external locus-of-hope (family, peers and spirituality), need satisfaction, and life satisfaction were examined with a sample of 247 students from Türkiye (<italic>M</italic><sub><italic>age</italic></sub> = 21.17). The findings indicate indirect effects of T1 family and peers locus-of-hope dimensions on T3 life satisfaction through serial mediation of T1 internal locus-of-hope and T2 need satisfaction. These findings underscore the importance of social agents in hopeful thinking and provide empirical support for integrating hope theory with psychological need satisfaction in understanding life satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":15837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Happiness Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147507814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on data from the World Values Survey (WVS), UNdata, and the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) for 44 countries (with over 74,000 respondents), this study investigates whether variation in grammatical gender intensity is systematically associated with women’s subjective well-being. Using multilevel models that account for the hierarchical structure of the data, we find that higher grammatical gender intensity is associated with lower subjective well-being among women. However, the adverse impacts of gendered language on the subjective well-being of women can be mitigated to some extent for those who are employed, have middle and high incomes, and possess higher levels of education. We further find that more gender-intensive languages are associated with less egalitarian gender-role beliefs, which are in turn associated with lower subjective well-being among women. This suggests gender beliefs as a potential associative pathway linking grammatical gender intensity and women’s subjective well-being. These findings underscore the nexus between gendered language and beliefs concerning gender roles, thereby providing substantiation for part of the Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis (LRH), which posits that language exerts an influence on both thought and cognition.","PeriodicalId":15837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Happiness Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147507809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Longitudinal data from 2,325 middle school students across three waves (2018–2020) of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey 2018 were analyzed using an autoregressive cross-lagged model. The results can be summarized as follows. First, among leisure activities in the first year of middle school, reading negatively influenced life satisfaction in the second year, whereas exercise and physical activity had a positive effect. Second, leisure activities in the second year did not significantly affect life satisfaction in the third year. Third, life satisfaction in the first year was associated with reduced time spent using smartphones for leisure in the second year, and this pattern persisted into the following year. Fourth, exercise and physical activity in the first year positively influenced life satisfaction in the second year, and second-year life satisfaction, in turn, affected participation in exercise and physical activity in the third year. These findings indicate a bidirectional relationship between physical activity and life satisfaction over time. In conclusion, this study provides longitudinal evidence of the relationship between different types of leisure activities and life satisfaction among adolescents from the first to the third year of middle school, highlighting its significance.","PeriodicalId":15837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Happiness Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147518770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
