To evaluate the effects of three different gratitude interventions on college student well-being. Participants were 132 college students at a university in the northwest sampled between September 2019 and February 2020. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three gratitude interventions (journaling, reflection, app prompted reflection) or an activity-matched control group for 8 weeks and completed baseline and post-intervention assessments of well-being (e.g., satisfaction with life, happiness, resilience, depression, anxiety, and stress). Participants in all three gratitude intervention groups showed improvements in well-being over time, whereas the control group did not report any such improvements. Gratitude journaling appeared to have the most significant positive impact on well-being and affective functioning. Gratitude interventions are simple, easy to implement, low-cost tools that can increase overall well-being and decrease negative affect, stress, and anxiety in college students.
评估三种不同感恩干预措施对大学生幸福感的影响。参与者为 2019 年 9 月至 2020 年 2 月期间在西北部一所大学抽取的 132 名大学生。参与者被随机分配到三种感恩干预措施（日记、反思、应用程序提示反思）或活动匹配的对照组中，进行 8 周的干预，并完成幸福感的基线和干预后评估（例如，生活满意度、幸福感、适应力、抑郁、焦虑和压力）。所有三种感恩干预组的参与者随着时间的推移幸福感都有所提高，而对照组则没有报告任何此类改善。感恩日记似乎对幸福感和情感功能有最显著的积极影响。感恩干预措施是简单、易于实施、低成本的工具，可以提高大学生的整体幸福感，减少负面情绪、压力和焦虑。
