Surveys

14.7K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Traits, Mood, and Subjective Wellbeing

66
Subjective well-being (SWB) refers to an individual's self-evaluation of their overall life satisfaction, happiness, and fulfillment. This multifaceted construct is typically assessed by analyzing the balance of positive and negative emotions alongside perceptions of life satisfaction. Personality traits such as neuroticism and extraversion are strongly associated with variations in SWB, offering critical insights into the underlying mechanisms of emotional well-being.

Adolescents from ethnic minority backgrounds face a multifaceted journey in forming their identities, shaped by the intersections of cultural expectations and personal exploration. For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

Erikson's Theory on Socioemotional Development during Adulthood

69
Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development outlines a series of stages through which individuals progress across the lifespan. Each stage involves a psychosocial conflict that significantly influences personal growth and well-being. Three key stages — intimacy versus isolation, generativity versus stagnation, and integrity versus despair — highlight the developmental challenges faced in adulthood.

Relationship Formation

What do you think is the single most influential factor in determining with whom you become friends and whom you form romantic relationships? You might be surprised to learn that the answer is simple: the people with whom you have the most contact. This most important factor is proximity. You are more likely to be friends with people you have regular contact with. For example, there are decades of research that shows that you are more likely to become friends with people who live in your dorm,...

Longitudinal Research

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Mental health (MH) conditions are prevalent chronic health issues in the US.
  • Previous research indicated reduced life satisfaction after COVID-19 in international populations.
  • This study addresses the gap by examining life satisfaction and MH in a diverse US community post-pandemic.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the correlations between life satisfaction and mental health.
  • To identify factors associated with life satisfaction in a diverse community after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional, non-experimental, retrospective study design.
  • The Satisfaction with Life Scale total score (SWLS_TS) was the primary outcome measure.
  • Data were analyzed using SPSS for descriptive and inferential statistics.

Main Results:

  • The study included 218 participants, with 84.1% identifying as Asian American.
  • Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, ethnicity, and no history of mental health conditions significantly predicted life satisfaction (SWLS_TS).
  • These three factors explained 5.2% of the variance in life satisfaction scores.

Conclusions:

  • The findings indicate a positive correlation between higher life satisfaction and increased age, diverse ethnicity, and absence of a prior mental health history.
  • These demographic and health history factors are associated with greater life satisfaction in the post-COVID-19 era.
  • The study highlights the importance of considering these factors when assessing life satisfaction in diverse populations.
