이 연구는 한국청소년들의 삶에 대한 행복감을 측정하기 위한 지표를 개발하고, 개발된 지표를 사용하여 ‘한국청소년행복지수’를 산출하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이 연구는 다음과 같은 단계를 거쳐 진행되었다. 첫째는 지수 개발에 앞서 ‘행복감’에 대한 국내외의 문헌을 검토하는 단계이다. 문헌검토에서 다루어진 내용들은 1) 행복감이란 무엇인가? 2) 행복감을 측정하는 지표들은 어떠한 것들이 있는가? 3) 행복감을 결정하는 요인들은 무엇이 있는가? 등이다. …

본 연구는 Schwartz의 가치이론에 근거한 가치형, 자연과의 연결감 및 다차원적 행복 측정치를 사용하여 대학생들(N=224)이 추구하는 가치와 자연과의 연결감이 행복의 측정치에 따라 어떤 관계 양상을 보이는지 알아보고자 하였다. 특히, 행복의 개념을 확장하여 쾌락주의적 관점에서의 행복인 삶의 만족과 긍정정서, 자기실현적 관점에서의 행복인 심리적 안녕감과 사회적 안녕감, 그리고 한국형 토착행복 등 다양한 유형의 행복을 측정하였다. 상관분석 결과, 박애형, …

Construal level theory proposes that temporal distance changes people’s responses to future events by changing the way people mentally represent those events. The greater the temporal distance, the more likely are events to be represented in terms of a few abstract features that convey the perceived essence of the events (high-level construals) rather than in …
Background : Research has shown that beliefs about one’s capacity to savour positive outcomes, a form of perceived control over positive emotions, are largely independent of beliefs about coping, a form of perceived control over negative emotions. Aim : To describe a new measure of savouring beliefs, the Savoring Beliefs Inventory (SBI). Method : Six …
Five studies examined the hypotheses that when people experience positive affect, those low in self-esteem are especially likely to dampen that affect, whereas those high in self-esteem are especially likely to savor it. Undergraduate participants’ memories for a positive event (Study 1) and their reported reactions to a success (Study 2) supported the dampening prediction. …
Handwritten autobiographies from 180 Catholic nuns, composed when participants were a mean age of 22 years, were scored for emotional content and related to survival during ages 75 to 95. A strong inverse association was found between positive emotional content in these writings and risk of mortality in late life (p < .001). As the quartile ranking …
Based on Zimbardo’s (1970) theory of deindividuation and Duval and Wicklund’s (1972) theory of “objective self-awareness” it was predicted that self-awareness would lead to a decrease in transgressive behavior. Subjects were either made self-aware (seated in front of a mirror listening to their own tape-recorded voice) or nonself-aware (seated to the side of the mirror …
This article examines systematic differences in people’s spending behavior when using foreign currencies. Rather than overspend or underspend in general, we show that individuals’ valuation of a product in an unfamiliar foreign currency is biased toward its nominal value—its face value—with inadequate adjustment for the exchange rate. This leads to underspending when the face value …
Most real decisions, unlike those of economics texts, have a status quo alternative—that is, doing nothing or maintaining one’s current or previous decision. A series of decision-making experiments shows that individuals disproportionately stick with the status quo. Data on the selections of health plans and retirement programs by faculty members reveal that the status quo …
A wine-loving economist we know purchased some nice Bordeaux wines years ago at low prices. The wines have greatly appreciated in value, so that a bottle that cost only $10 when purchased would now fetch $200 at auction. This economist now drinks some of this wine occasionally, but would neither be willing to sell the …
