Although a great deal of research has tested the longitudinal effects of regularly practicing gratitude, much less attention has been paid to the emotional landscape directly following engagement in gratitude exercises. In three studies, we explored the array of discrete emotions people experience after being prompted to express or recall gratitude. In Studies 1 and …

Choi, E., et al. (2018). Social Relatedness and Physical Health Are More Strongly Related in Older Than Younger Adults: Findings from the Korean Adult Longitudinal Study.
Previous research indicates that social relatedness is beneficial to physical health; however, findings on the relative strength of the relationship between these variables have been inconsistent. The present study employed cross-sectional survey (Study 1) and a daily diary survey (Study 2) to examine the link between social relatedness and physical health by age. Using a …
McMahan, E. A., et al. (2016). Some implications of believing that happiness involves the absence of pain: Negative hedonic beliefs exacerbate the effects of stress on well-being.
One common belief about happiness, espoused to varying degrees by both researchers and laypeople alike, is that happiness involves a lack of negative hedonic experiences. In the current investigation, we examine whether individual differences in endorsement of this belief, termed negative hedonic belief, moderate the effects of stress on happiness and several indicators of well-being. …
Tybur, J. M., et al. (2016). Parasite stress and pathogen avoidance relate to distinct dimensions of political ideology across 30 nations.
People who are more avoidant of pathogens are more politically conservative, as are nations with greater parasite stress. In the current research, we test two prominent hypotheses that have been proposed as explanations for these relationships. The first, which is an intragroup account, holds that these relationships between pathogens and politics are based on motivations …
최종안, 이민하, 권유리, 최인철, & 최은수 (2016). 낙관적인 사람이 행복할까, 행복한 사람이 낙관적 일까?. 한국심리학회지: 사회 및 성격, 30(3), 95-114.
개인의 고유한 특질로서의 낙관성은 기존의 연구들에서 일관되게 행복 관련 변인들과 정적인 상관관계 를 맺고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 이를 바탕으로 연구자들은 낙관성을 행복의 원인 변인으로 간주해왔 지만, 행복의 긍정성이 다양한 삶의 영역들에 미치는 효과를 고려할 때, 행복이 낙관성의 원인일 가능성 도 배제할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구는 낙관성과 행복의 인과 방향을 체계적으로 조사하기 위해 국내 최 …
최해연, & 최종안. (2016). 한국인의 정서 구조와 측정. 한국심리학회지: 사회 및 성격, 30(2), 89-114.
정서 연구와 실용적 개입을 위해서는 다양한 정서들 간의 구분과 그 특성에 대한 체계적인 이해가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 한국 문화맥락에서 정서단어를 분석하여 한국인의 정서경험 구조를 이해하고 이를 측정할 자기보고 측정도구를 제안하였다. 정서 단어로써 원형성과 친숙성이 보고된 부정정서단어 32개와 긍정정서단어 20개를 선별하여 분석하였다. 대학생과 직장인 250명이(직장인 65.2%, 남자 45.6%) 정서 경험 보고 자료를 요인분석한 결과, 긍정정서는 ‘애정’ …

Choi, E. & Chentsova-Dutton, Y. E. (2017). The relationship between momentary emotions and well-being across European Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans.
Cultural differences in the emphasis on positive and negative emotions suggest that the impact of these emotions on well-being may differ across cultural contexts. The present study utilised a momentary sampling method to capture average momentary emotional experiences. We found that for participants from cultural contexts that foster positive emotions (European Americans and Hispanic Americans), …
Nelson, S. K., et al. (2015). ‘It’s up to you’: Experimentally manipulated autonomy support for prosocial behavior improves well-being in two cultures over six weeks.
Previous research has demonstrated a strong link between prosocial behavior – particularly autonomous prosocial behavior – and well-being. Little is known, however, about whether and how autonomy might be boosted in the context of everyday kindnesses. We tested the effect of supporting students’ autonomy on well-being gains from practicing acts of kindness in a six-week …
Sul, S., Kim, J., & Choi, I. (2015). Subjective well-being, social buffering and hedonic editing in the quotidian. Cognition and Emotion, 1-18.
A previous study on the relationship between subjective well-being (SWB) and hedonic editing—the process of mentally integrating or segregating different events during decision-making—showed that happy individuals preferred the social-buffering strategy more than less happy individuals. The present study examined the relationship between SWB, social-buffering and hedonic outcomes in daily life. In Study 1, we used …
Kim, J., et al. (2016). Companion Versus Comparison: Examining Seeking Social Companionship or Social Comparison as Characteristics That Differentiate Happy and Unhappy People.
Which friend do you want to spend time with—a happy friend who performs better than you or an unhappy friend who performs worse than you? The present research demonstrates that in such conflicting situations, when the desires for companionship and comparison are pitted against each other, one’s level of happiness plays an important role in …
