I explored the relationship between forgiveness and subjective well-being (SWB), and the mediating effect of social support in this relationship. Participants were 443 college students from Henan, China, who completed the Heartland Forgiveness Scale, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Subjective Well-Being Scale. The results show that both interpersonal forgiveness and self-forgiveness were significantly correlated with SWB. Moreover, social support partially mediated the effects of both self-forgiveness and interpersonal forgiveness on SWB. These findings extend prior research and elucidate how forgiveness can influence SWB in college students.

In order to explore the specific influence mechanism of professional commitment on subjective Well-being, this paper makes a research questionnaire based on professional commitment scale, subjective Well-being scale, academic Self-efficacy scale and social support scale, and surveys 356 college students nationwide. The obtained data are analyzed empirically using SPSS22.0 and Amos22.0. The results show that: (1) Professional commitment and academic Self-efficacy can positively predict subjective Well-being; (2) Academic Self-efficacy has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between professional commitment and subjective Well-being; (3) The moderating effect of social support occurs in the direct path of professional commitment’s influence on subjective Well-being and the indirect path of professional commitment’s influence on academic Self-efficacy. By constructing a moderated mediation model, this study reveals the mechanism of professional commitment on subjective Well-being, and provides reference for analyzing, predicting, shaping and correcting college students’ cognition and behavior, as well as helping to solve their psychological problems.

This research was conducted to determine the influence of social support (emotional support, instrumental support, informational support, and companionship support), social comparison (opinion and ability) and age among young mothers who use social media. A sample of 200 young mothers aged 18-37 years was taken with non-probability sampling techniques. This research used Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) & Positive Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) to measure the subjective well-being variable. The instrument for social support was arranged based on theory of Sarafino (2011). Futhermore the instrument for social comparison was modified from the Iowa-Netherlands Comparison Orientation Scale (INCOM). The results showed there was a significant influence of social support, social comparison, and age towards subjective well-being of young mothers. The minor hypothesis test of four dimensions of social support showed only one dimension that influenced subjective well-being, which was emotional support. On social comparison, one of the two dimensions that significantly influenced subjective well-being was ability, whereas the other dimension which was opinion did not give significant influence toward subjective well-being.
