Description

Introduction Subjective well-being is a theoretical and empirical undertaking that seeks to understand how people favorably evaluate and feel with regard to their lives (Diener & Diener, 1995). It is a theory that holds happiness as a subjective matter and what constitutes the good life depends upon the state of the individual (Szymanski, 2000). As a theoretical construct, subjective well-being is delineated into two independent facets: positive affect and life satisfaction (Diener et. al., 1995). The positive affect component is defined as transient emotional experiences and consists of balancing positive and negative feelings. On the other hand, life satisfaction is the cognitive domain and is a global assessment of the positivity that an individual appraises with regard to life (Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985). In short, subjective well-being reflects both a person's current emotional and mental states, as an individual is considered happy when he or she feels good and has positive thoughts.
