This study examines the relationships between life satisfaction, PA levels, PA venue preferences, and the influences of COVID-19 on PA. The study utilized data from the European Commission’s Eurobarometer, (GESIS, Cologne. ZA7888 Data file Version 1.0.0, 2022), which collected data across all 27 European Union (EU) Member States. The survey included around 1,000 residents in each EU Member State, 15 years and older.

The results indicated that both overall and daily life satisfaction were influenced by similar factors, including age, places for PA, COVID-19 impact on PA, and achieving recommended PA levels. Furthermore, the interaction between outdoor PA venues and COVID-19 impact on PA significantly affected life satisfaction, while no significant interaction was observed for indoor PA venues and COVID-19.

The paper advances the measure of subjective well-being capability (SWC) as the integration of the subjective well-being measure with the capability approach in a unified measurement framework. Following the development of a conceptual model, the theoretical framework is operationalized empirically to quantify measures of SWC across the selected countries using a Multiple Indicators and Multiple Causes Model. Data from the European Quality of Life Survey is employed. A comparative analysis compares the SWC measures across countries as well as comparing SWC with conventional well-being measures such as overall happiness and GDP <i>per capita</i>. The results of the study reveal a significant correlation between the SWC based on a general model for all countries, overall happiness, and GDP <i>per capita</i>. However, it also suggests that country-specific SWCs, calculated from tailored models, could substantially deviate from traditional well-being measurements. This attribute suggests that SWC could be a practical tool for assessing individual contexts, as reflected in the tailored models, even though it might not serve as the optimal instrument for country ranking (via the general MIMIC model).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51483,"journal":{"name":"Applied Research in Quality of Life","volume":"19 5","pages":"2555 - 2593"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11482-024-10334-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141507628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used data from the 1988 wave of the Longitudinal Study of Generations, focusing on middle-aged parents when they averaged 60 years of age. We conducted a latent class analysis to identify typologies of intergenerational solidarity with adult children and included these results in a Cox proportional hazard model predicting age-related mortality risk between 1988 and 2020 using data from the National Death Index.

Parents in the <i>intimate-but-distant</i>, <i>social</i>, and <i>obligatory</i> latent classes had a lower risk of subsequent death compared to the <i>detached</i> latent class. However, contrary to our expectations, parents’ risk of subsequent death was not significantly different between <i>tight-knit</i> and <i>detached</i> latent classes.

The results of three confirmatory factor analyses show that the model of five independent interrelated factors (domains) presents the best fit. The analysis shows the invariance across gender and age groups.

However, disaggregation and comparison across key social indicators, specifically, country/region of residence, sex and age showed that there were instances where higher levels of education were less beneficial for wellbeing. While acknowledging the importance of education for wellbeing, our findings suggest the need to consider how unique socio-cultural factors might further complicate the benefits of education.

Across different empirical settings and modelling approaches, a conceptual common denominator exists: the bulk of prior studies assumes that lower social status, by definition, implies higher relative deprivation, resulting in reduced well-being. In the present study, we take issue with this assumption and propose that lower self-ascribed positions on the status hierarchy are necessary but insufficient in and of themselves to undermine well-being. The critical, yet often neglected, factor in the literature is perceived societal unfairness. That is, one must believe that personal predicament as gauged by status disadvantage is, at least partly, due to some exogenous or impersonal forces (e.g., discrimination, limited opportunity). Our central argument is that the magnitude of the focal relationship between relative deprivation and well-being should be more pronounced among those who hold higher perceptions of unfairness. Using three independently collected probability datasets on the South Korean population—Social Science Korea (2017), Seoul Survey (2018), and Korean Social Integration Survey (2018)—we systematically test this hypothesis. Results from multilevel models robustly demonstrate that the connection between lower social status and lower well-being is significantly stronger among individuals who assess their society to be more ‘unfair,’ suggesting that future research should incorporate the level of perceived unfairness as a consequential moderator.\u0000</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51483,"journal":{"name":"Applied Research in Quality of Life","volume":"19 5","pages":"2417 - 2446"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141507629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
