Resumo
O presente estudo tem como objectivo, estudar a relação da Felicidade Subjectiva
com a Satisfação com a Vida, o Florescimento e o Bem-estar Subjectivo. A amostra foi
composta por um total de 216 participantes estudantes universitários portugueses dos quais 88
(40,7%) são do sexo masculino e 128 do sexo feminino (59,3%), em que a média das idades é
de 25,56 anos (DP=7, 55).
Os instrumentos utilizados foram a escala de Felicidade Subjectiva (Lyubomirsky &
Lepper, 1999), a escala de satisfação com a vida (Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffin, 1985), a
escala Experiência Positivas e Negativas (Diener, Wirtz, Tov, Kim-Prieto, Choi, Oishi &
Biswas-Diener em 2008), e a escala de florescimento (Diener, Wirtz, Tov, Kim-Priento, Choi,
Oishi e Biswas-Diener, 2010), e ainda um questionário sociodemográfico.
Verificaram-se uma associação positiva entre a felicidade subjectiva, satisfação com a
vida, florescimento e experiências positivas, bem como uma associação negativa entre
felicidade subjectiva, satisfação com a vida, florescimento e experiências negativas.
Como variáveis preditoras da felicidade subjectiva, identificaram-se, as experiências
positivas, a satisfação com a vida, e o florescimento, que explicam 44,2% da variância da
felicidade subjectiva.
