This article examines the subjective antecedents of life satisfaction of workers. Adopting a ‘bottom-up’ perspective, we assessed the unique influence that satisfaction with multiple life domains have on evaluative judgments of overall life satisfaction. Based on a nationwide sample of 530 Chilean workers, we simultaneously tested the effects of seven life domain satisfactions that have been consistently included in extant models of life satisfaction and subjective well-being. These were satisfaction with health, financial situation, social relationships, one’s self-worth, leisure-time, family, and work. Having controlled for age and gender, results showed that satisfaction with one’s financial situation was the dominant predictor of overall life satisfaction of workers, with a weight of .36. Satisfaction with family, work, and health had effects of .25, .14, and .14, respectively. Interestingly, satisfaction with one’s self-worth, leisure-time, and social relationships did not have statistically significant effects on life satisfaction, although the first two showed t values near the critical value. 相似文献

Using data gathered through questionnaires on factors relating to the intention of condom use included in the Theory of Planned
Behavior, we obtained evidence in favor of the two-dimensional structure of attitude: affective and cognitive components.
In a structural equation model for predicting the intention of condom use as an instrumental behavior, we found that the congruence
between the affective and cognitive components moderates the influence of attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral
control in the intention of condom use. Since most of the studies do not take into account this proposed interaction, they
can only report a kind of main effects average. Moreover, the percentage of explained variance of intention is higher for
those individuals with the same value for the two components (congruent group). Furthermore, we found that perceived behavioral
control is the most determining factor and that the cognitive component of the attitude is a better predictor than the affective
one. The results are discussed from the point of view of their implications for designing prevention programmes for sexually
transmitted diseases. 相似文献

The study of socio-economic inequalities from across-national perspective has been hampered by the lack of adequate common
indices of socio-economic status that can be used in a self-report survey instrument. This paper examines the construction
and the properties of global social indexes in general, and of the Family Affluence Scale (henceforth FAS) in particular.
The paper proposes a new strategy for making comparisons of the global index with stratified data, building a revised FAS
based on Adapted Canonical Variate Analysis (henceforth ACVA). This alternative strategy for constructing a global index is
available in standard software, and the new proposal for stratified data only requires a simple program, which is justified,
explained and provided in the text. Data come from the 1998 Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (HBSC), a WHO Cross-National
Study using cluster sampling of schoolchildren from five countries: Denmark, Latvia, Portugal, Scotland and the USA. The results
reveal that in every country we would have had a completely different evaluation of the three indicators of Family Affluence
if we had used either linear or nonlinear approaches to compute the global indexes. Moreover, Family Affluence comparisons
among countries shows that the relative contribution of the three indicators to the overall FAS, changes from country to country.
We conclude that separate indicators of Family Affluence are not equally relevant in each country and, as a consequence, do
not contribute equally to the global index. For cross-cultural studies, the strategy for constructing an index should be country
specific. The methodological developments presented in the paper open up opportunities to study socio-economic patterning
of health among young people in the developed world, since self completed surveys can now employ a common measure of family
material wealth. The findings show that the RFAS (Revised FAS) is a useful index of socio-economic status for use in national
and cross-national surveys of adolescent health and health behaviour. The new strategy for weighting observed indicators in
the index gives it enhanced power to detect in equalities. 相似文献

In this paper the authors examine the methodology of data analysis and collection usually applied in Job-Satisfaction studies and more generally in Well-being research. In this field, data is collected through questionnaires and analysed using multivariate statistical techniques, a process which is commonly known as non-experimental research. The article points out some of the problems in this procedure and proposes an alternative experimental methodology which is applied to evaluate Job-Satisfaction over a Dutch random sample. Essentially it consists of the implementation of factorial designs in questionnaire construction. The use of fractional factorials is also discussed. 相似文献
