Past work on selective optimization and compensation (SOC) has focused on between-persons differences and its relationship with global well-being. However, less work examines within-person SOC variation. This study examined whether variation over 7 days in everyday SOC was associated with happiness in a sample of 145 adults ages 22-94. Age differences in this relationship, the moderating effects of health, and lagged effects were also examined. On days in which middle-age and older adults and individuals with lower health used more SOC, they also reported greater happiness. Lagged effects indicated lower happiness led to greater subsequent SOC usage. (PsycINFO Database Record
以往关于选择性优化与补偿（SOC）的研究主要关注个体间差异及其与总体幸福感的关系。然而，较少有研究考察个体内部的SOC变化。本研究调查了145名年龄在22岁至94岁之间的成年人样本中，日常SOC在7天内的变化是否与幸福感相关。同时也考察了这种关系中的年龄差异、健康状况的调节作用以及滞后效应。在中年及老年成年人以及健康状况较差的个体使用更多SOC的日子里，他们报告的幸福感也更强。滞后效应表明较低的幸福感会导致随后更多地使用SOC。（《心理学文摘数据库记录》
