Romantic relationship is one of the most important assets for individual’s self esteem, health and happiness or their subjective well-being (Reis, Collins, & Berscheid, 2000). By that fact, the broke-up of the romantic relationship can decrease the level of happiness and subjective well-being of individuals whether the subjective well-being itself is relatively stable for the entire life (Park & Sanchez, 2007). Sometimes an individual responded their broke-up by doing some maladaptive acts such as an endless emotional distress and obsessive act just to get back their ex-partner. The purpose of this research is to give Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) in order to enhance people’s happiness. The research design is using one group pretest-postest design.

The provision of social support and acceptance commitment therapy aims to produce a meaningful life for patients undergoing treatment. AIM: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of social support and acceptance commitment therapy on subjective well-being and mental health of COVID-19 patients. METHODS: The research design used is quasi-experimental research with dependent pre-test and post-test samples. The sampling technique used is consecutive sampling to determine the sample according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with a total sample of 106 respondents who were divided into 53 respondents for the intervention group and 53 respondents for the control group. The independent variables in this study are social support and acceptance commitment therapy. Meanwhile, the dependent variables in this study are subjective well-being and mental health. The instruments used in this research are The Social Support Questionnaire, Mental Health Inventory, and Satisfaction with Life Scale. Statistical analysis was conducted using t-test with p < 0.5. RESULTS: The results show that in the intervention group, the difference in mean subjective well-being before and after the intervention is 6.88, while the difference in the mean of mental health before and after the intervention is 39.71. Furthermore, in the control group, the difference in mean subjective well-being before and after the intervention is 0.17, while the difference in the mean of mental health before and after the intervention is 0.02. Data analysis shows that social support and acceptance commitment therapy had an effect on subjective well-being and mental health of COVID-19 patients with p = 0.00. CONCLUSION: The provision of social support and acceptance commitment therapy can be done as a preventive effort to maintain the mental health and subjective well-being of COVID-19 patients during the treatment period both in the hospital and independent isolation at home.

Subjective well-being (SWB) merupakan gambaran kebahagiaan, kepuasaan hidup, dan gambaran afek positif-negatif individu. Self-esteem (penghargaan diri) dan self-forgiveness (penerimaan diri) merupakan dasar penilaian positif individu terhadap dirinya. Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini dilakukan guna memperoleh peran self-esteem dan self-forgiveness sebagai prediktor SWB pada perempuan dewasa muda. Penelitian ini menggunakan tiga alat ukur, yakni Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS), dan Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ). Penelitian ini juga hendak melihat seberapa besar peranan self-esteem dan self-forgiveness terhadap SWB. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan teknik non-probabilitysampling. Subjek dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 500 perempuan yang berusia 20 – 28 tahun, memiliki minimal pendidikan SMA/ sederajat, dan berdomisili di Jabodetabek. Seluruh data diolah dengan teknik explore (descriptive statistic) dan analyze (regression) menggunakan SPSS Statistic versi 24. Penelitian ini memperoleh hasil bahwa self-esteem dan self-forgiveness berperan secara signifikan sebagai prediktor SWB pada perempuan dewasa muda, yakni sebasar 53,8%. Berdasarkan besaran peran, self-esteem memiliki peran sebagai prediktor yang lebih besar dari self-forgiveness, yakni sebesar 52,5%. Sedangkan, self-forgiveness memiliki peran sebesar 17,9%. Bagi penelitian selanjutnya, jumlah partisipan dapat dikontrol secara merata agar memperoleh hasil yang lebih baik. Selain itu, dapat pula dilakukan intervensi pada partisipan yang memiliki self-esteem, self-forgiveness dan SWB yang cenderung rendah, sehingga peneliti dapat mengontrol dan melakukan follow-up. Penelitian selanjutnya juga dapat menguji forgiveness of others dan forgiveness of the situation, untuk melihat seberapa besar peran keduanya terhadap SWB.Meneliti pada rentang usia dewasa dewasa muda tengah (28 – 33 tahun)dan dewasa muda akhir (33 – 40 tahun) juga dapat diaplikasikan pada penelitian selanjutnya.Subjective well-being (SWB) is an image of happiness, life satisfaction, and an image of the individual’s positive and negative affects. Self-esteem and self-forgiveness are the basis for an individual's positive assessment of him/herself. Therefore, this study was conducted to obtain the role of self-esteem and self-forgiveness as predictors of SWB in young adult women. This study used three measuring instruments, namely Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS), and Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ). This study also aims to discover the role of self-esteem and self-forgiveness towards SWB. This research is a quantitative study with non-probability sampling technique. Subjects in this study were 500 women aged 20-28 years, with minimum of high school / equivalent education level, and lived in Jabodetabek area. The data was processed by exploring (descriptive statistics) and analyzing (regression) techniques using SPSS Statistics version 24. This study shows that self-esteem and self-forgiveness play a significant role as predictors of SWB in young adult women, which is 53.8%. Based on the magnitude of the role, self-esteem is a greater predictor of SWB than self-forgiveness, equal to 52.5% with self-forgiveness equal to 17.9%. For further research, the number of participants can be made more even in order to obtain better results. In addition, intervention can also be conducted on participants with low self-esteem, self-forgiveness and SWB, so that researchers can conduct control and follow-up. Future studies may also examine forgiveness of others and forgiveness of the situation, in order to find out their contribution towards SWB. Research on middle young adults(28-33 years old) and late young adults (33-40 years) can also be applied in subsequent studies.

Abstract Millions of American children under the age of 18 are being cared for by their grandparents and without the presence of the biological parents. The number of custodial grandfamilies has significantly increased over the last five years. Recent studies have shown that custodial grandparents (CPGs) are often facing specific challenges in life, such as lower emotional well-being, higher parenting burden and stress related to this unique situation. Despite these findings, few interventions take a strengths based approach to improve their mental health and resilience. We describe our efforts to address these issues by proposing intervention anchored in the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), emphasizing the importance of acceptance of challenging circumstances outside of one’s control and promoting resilience among participants. The program consists of a web based ACT program with online coaching meetings, six common core sessions and six separate sessions for each age group over a time period of six months. This program is unique in the sense that it utilizes both individual and group session techniques to facilitate the learning process. Main active ingredients of this program are to promote effective coping strategies, to reduce parenting stress among grandparents and to increase life skills (i.e., decision-making, proactivity) among grandchildren. We are hypothesizing that participating in the ACT program will help CGPs to improve self-efficacy, emotional well-being, higher self-confidence, social competence, lower depressive symptoms, and parenting distress, thereby leading to positive outcomes such as improved mental health and higher resilience.

On the premise that social relationships among elderly adults differ in terms of the most significant, dominant figure, this study aimed to examine: (1) whether there were qualitative differences in supportive functions between family-dominant and friend-dominant affective relationships, and (2) whether “lone wolves”, who were deficient in human resources, had difficulties in maintaining their well-being. A total of 148 Japanese, over the age of 65, both living in communities and in institutions were individually interviewed about their social relationships using a self-report type method, the Picture Affective Relationships test, and their well-being was assessed using Depression, Self-esteem, Life satisfaction, and Subjective health scales. Results showed that there were no differences in psychological well-being between family-dominant and friend-dominant participants, but those who lacked affective figures had lower scores in subjective well-being than did their family-dominant and friend-dominant counterparts. The generalisation of these findings to other cultures is discussed.

The article is devoted to the study of student's coping strategies influence on the level of their subjective well-being in conditions of distance learning. It was found that student's coping strategies have an impact on the level of their psychological comfort. Using regression analysis it was revealed that the variability of student's life well-being is determined by the following coping strategies: positive self-esteem; responsibility; planning; escape and self-control. It was developed the typology of students in the conditions of distance education, which includes such indicators of dominant coping strategies: the level of psychological comfort, dominant coping and measure of stress tolerance. According to the certain typology, three types of students were defined: 1) adaptive type (high indicators of well-being, high indicators of tolerance to stress, dominant strategies “self-esteem”, “responsibility” and “planning” ); 2) maladaptive type (low indicators of well-being, low indicators of tolerance to stress, dominant coping “escape”); 3) average adaptive type (average indicators of well-being, average indicators of tolerance to stress; dominant strategies “responsibility”, “self-control”, low indicators of coping “positive self-esteem”). The results of the study indicate that students who are best adapted to distance learning and have a high level of psychological comfort tend to evaluate themselves positively, treat work responsibly, plan their studies and have an average level of self-control.

Using recent data from the International Sexuality Description Project (ISDP), we examined whether national differences in self‐esteem across 55 nations are reflected in suicide rates. Results indicate that suicide is especially common in nations with relatively low levels of self‐esteem. This relation is consistent across sex lines, age of suicide and independent from several other relevant factors such as economic affluence, transition, individualism, subjective well‐being, and neuroticism. These findings provide support for the predictive validity of self‐esteem scores as assessed in the ISDP survey. They also contribute to a growing body of research documenting negative consequences associated with low self‐esteem. Possible implications for suicide prevention strategies are discussed.
