Relationships among predictors and criteria of subjective well-being were examined in a sample of 151 urban adolescents of color, ages 12-15. The relative strengths of family, peer, and school-related support and esteem in predicting three measures of subjective well-being (life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect) were explored. Results suggested that sense of worth in one's family explained a significant amount of variance in subjective well-being variables, above and beyond the contributions of individual, school, and peer-related variables. Implications for prevention and mental health promotion with urban adolescents of color are discussed based on these findings.
在151名年龄在12至15岁的城市有色青少年样本中,研究了主观幸福感的预测因素与标准之间的关系。探讨了家庭、同伴和学校相关支持及自尊在预测主观幸福感的三项指标(生活满意度、积极情绪和消极情绪)方面的相对强度。结果表明,家庭中的价值感在解释主观幸福感变量的方差方面具有显著作用,超出了个人、学校和同伴相关变量的影响。基于这些发现,讨论了对城市有色青少年预防和促进心理健康的启示。
