This study explored the mediation role of emotional intelligence, positive affect, and negative affect in the influence of childhood maltreatment on life satisfaction. A total of 811 participants completed the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, the Wong Law Emotional Intelligence Scale, the Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scale, and the Satisfaction with Life Scale validly. Results revealed that emotional intelligence, positive affect and negative affect are mediators between childhood maltreatment and life satisfaction. In addition, childhood maltreatment influenced life satisfaction through the sequential intermediary of “emotional intelligence-positive affect” and “emotional intelligence-negative affect”. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Pemberlakuan jaga jarak fisik untuk mengurangi penyebaran Covid-19 telah berdampak pada seluruh lapisan masyarakat termasuk mahasiswa. Pemerintah Indonesia menghentikan aktivitas pembelajaran tatap muka dan diganti dengan pembelajaran daring pada perguruan tinggi yang terdampak Covid-19. Perubahan aktivitas secara tiba-tiba memungkinkan untuk berdampak pada kondisi mahasiswa pula, seperti keadaan kesejahteraan subjektif mahasiswa. Penelitian ini membahas mengenai gambaran atau keadaan kesejahteraan subjektif mahasiswa dimasa pandemi Covid-19 dengan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif. Partisipan penelitian ini melibatkan 112 mahasiswa yang tersebar pada delapan pulau di Indonesia, dan diambil melalui teknik accidental sampling.  Instrumen penelitian menggunakan Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) dan Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS). Analisis data menggunakan analisis kuantitaif deskriptif univariat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa  responden dalam penelitian ini (N = 112) paling banyak memiliki skor kesejahteraan subjektif pada kategori sedang (53,6%), rendah (17.9%), dan tinggi (28.6%). Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa banyak mahasiswa yang mengevaluasi kehidupannya cukup positif, yaitu merasa cukup puas dengan kehidupannya serta seimbang dalam merasakan emosi positif dan negatif. Selain itu, mayoritas mahasiswa berada dikategori sedang pada dimensi life satisfaction (53,6%), kategori tinggi pada dimensi domain satisfaction (64,3%), kategori tinggi pada dimensi positive affect (54,5%), pada dimensi negative affect mayoritas berada pada kategori sedang dan rendah dengan prosentase yang sama (36,6%). Penelitian ini diharapkan mampu memberikan informasi ilmiah sebagai landasan untuk program pemberdayaan mahasiswa agar lebih tangguh dan adaptif selama dan pasca pandemi Covid-19.

Emotional management is a decisive factor in building stimulating environments for the comprehensive development of individuals. In this study, 338 students enrolled in education degrees (n = 338), with an average age of 22.88 years (±5.50), participated. The following instruments were used: Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), Wong Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEI-S), Trait Meta Mood Scale 24 (TMMS 24) and Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQi-C). The objective was to determine the complementarity of certain dimensions of EI that predict greater life satisfaction based on the multivariate statistics of structural equations. The multi-group model obtained good structural validity (χ2 = 103,729; RMSEA = 0.078; GFI = 0.917; CFI = 0.942; IFI = 0.943). In addition, significant correlations were found between life satisfaction and all dimensions were included in the emotional intelligence instruments used (p < 0.01). In terms of gender, we found that women had higher scores in all EI dimensions, in contrast to life satisfaction, where men had higher scores. The findings suggest the importance of working emotions in future educators to become satisfied and effective professionals.

El presente estudio pretende mostrar evidencias sobre la relación entre inteligencia emocional, calidad de vida (criterios objetivos y subjetivos) y satisfacción vital en personas con Discapacidad Intelectual. La muestra está compuesta por 15 sujetos (n=15), con una edad media de 34.93 años (±12.28) y grado de discapacidad promedio del 64.07%. Se utilizaron los siguientes instrumentos: Trait Meta Mood Scale 24 (TMMS 24), Escala INICO-FEAPS (modalidad autoinforme e informe de otras personas) y Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). Los resultados evidenciaron la relación positiva entre algunas de las dimensiones de inteligencia emocional, calidad de vida y satisfacción vital (p<.05). Por otra parte, los análisis de regresión mostraron la asociación positiva entre inteligencia emocional (reparación) y satisfacción vital (criterios subjetivos); calidad de vida (bienestar físico y bienestar emocional) y satisfacción vital (criterios objetivos). Las consecuencias prácticas de este estudio sugieren fomentar programas de inteligencia emocional para este colectivo. The present study attempts to provide evidence of the existing relation between emotional intelligence, quality of life (objective and subjective criteria) and life satisfaction in people with Intellectual Disability. The sample of the study is composed of 15 subjects (n=15) aged 34.93 on average (±12.28) who have a disability degree ratio of 64.07%. The following tools were used: Trait Meta Mood Scale 24 (TMMS 24), INICO-FEAPS Scale (self-report and other people’s report) and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). The results proved the positive relation between some of the dimensions of emotional intelligence, quality of life and life satisfaction (p<.05). On the other hand, the regression analysis showed a positive association between emotional intelligence (reparation) and life satisfaction (subjective criteria); quality of life (physical and emotional wellness) and life satisfaction (objective criteria).

Objetivos: O presente artigo apresenta um estudo que visa aprofundar as qualidades psicométricas da Escala de Autoeficácia para a Atividade com Sentido (EAASentido), através de análises de fidelidade e validade. A escala foi desenvolvida a partir dos constructos teóricos da autoeficácia, da aprendizagem autodirigida e da atividade de pessoas de idade avançada no âmbito do projeto europeu PALADIN, com o objetivo de criar um instrumento apto a avaliar até que ponto os seniores se sentem confiantes para realizarem atividades com sentido, por si próprios. Método: A investigação é de natureza não experimental e incidiu sobre uma amostra de 503 seniores e idosos das regiões Norte e Centro de Portugal com uma média etária de 71,66 (51 a 96 anos) a quem foram aplicadas a EAASentido, a Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg (Rosenberg, 1989), a Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scale (Watson e Clark, 1994), a Satisfaction With Life Scale (Diener et al., 1985), o Meaning in Life Questionnaire (Steger, Frazier, Oishi e Kaler, 2006), a Escala de Autoeficácia para a Autodireção na Saúde (Oliveira, 2011) e a Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (Lawton e Brody, 1969). Resultados: A consistência interna encontrada foi de 0,94 (alfa de Cronbach) e a validade de constructo revelou muito bons indicadores. No que respeita à análise de componentes principais, os resultados apontaram para três dimensões e não as cinco inicialmente previstas: atividades de desenvolvimento pessoal e participação social, atividades instrumentais, e atividades espirituais/religiosas. Analisadas as saturações dos itens propôs-se a reformulação da escala, eliminando cinco itens. A consistência interna global dos 15 itens manteve-se elevada (0,92). Conclusões: Conclui-se que a EAASentido, com 15 itens, é bastante consistente e adequada para avaliar em que medida os seniores têm confiança na sua capacidade para se envolverem em atividades com sentido (em termos de indicador global), possuindo boa validade de constructo. Em estudos futuros sugere-se a continuidade da avaliação da sua estrutura dimensional, nomeadamente através de análises confirmatórias.

Introduction: The prevalence of older individuals experiencing a fall is high. Moreover, falls can have deleterious effects on health status. Additionally, falls can affect the subjective well-being of individuals. However, there is a lack of studies examining the link between falls and subjective well-being. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate whether the onset of falling is associated with (intraindividual) decreases in subjective well-being in men and women.Materials and Methods: Longitudinal data (from wave 5 to wave 6) were taken from a population-based sample of individuals residing in private households in Germany [in our analytical sample: 3,906 observations (men), and 3,718 observations (women)]. Positive and negative affect were quantified using the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). Life satisfaction was assessed using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS).Results: Adjusting for various potential confounders, fixed effects regressions showed that the onset of falls was associated with a decrease in positive affect (β = 0.08, p &lt; 0.01), and an increase in negative affect (β = 0.07, p &lt; 0.01) among men. While the onset of falls was not associated with changes in positive affect in women, it was associated with a decrease in negative affect in women (β = 0.06, p &lt; 0.05). Sex differences were significant. The onset of falls was not associated with decreases in life satisfaction in men, nor in women.Discussion: The present study particularly highlights the link between the onset of falls and reduced affective well-being among men. Avoiding falls may contribute to maintaining affective well-being among middle-aged and older men.

BackgroundOne important aspect of subjective judgments about one’s well-being (i.e., subjective well-being: life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect) is that cultural features, such as, nationality seem to shape cognitive judgments about the “the ideal life.” In this comparative study we examined differences in subjective well-being and psychological well-being between Italian and Swedish adolescents and tested if the relationship between the three constructs of subjective well-being (i.e., satisfaction with life, positive affect, and negative affect) and psychological well-being was moderated by the adolescents’ nationality.MethodItalian (n= 255) and Swedish (n= 277) adolescents answered to the Satisfaction with Life Scale, the Positive Affect Negative Affect Schedule, and Ryff’s Scales of Psychological Well-Being. Differences between samples were tested using a Multiple Analysis of Variance. We also conducted a multiple group analysis (Italy and Sweden) using Structural Equation Modelling to investigate the relationship between all three subjective well-being constructs and psychological well-being.ResultsItalian adolescents scored significantly higher in satisfaction with life than Swedish adolescents. Additionally, across countries, girls scored significantly higher in negative affect than boys. In both countries, all three constructs of subjective well-being were significantly associated to adolescents’ psychological well-being. Nevertheless, while the effect of the relationship between affect and psychological well-being was almost the same across countries, life satisfaction was more strongly related to psychological well-being among Swedish adolescents.ConclusionsThe present study shows that there are larger variations between these two cultures in the cognitive construct of subjective well-being than in the affective construct. Accordingly, associations between the cognitive component, not the affective component, of subjective well-being and psychological well-being differ between countries as well.
