چکیده
Happiness, or subjective well being (SWB) has been associated with positive outcomes such as, increased sociability (Diener, Sandvik, Pavot, & Fujita, 1992), creativity (Hirt, E. R., Melton, R. J. McDonald, H. E., & Harackiewicz, J. M., 1996), increased health (Weisse, 1992), and marital satisfaction (Myers, 2000). Additionally, SWB on a national level has been positively correlated with increased productivity (Diener, 2002). Indeed, SWB has been deemed so important that there has been a call for a national index of SWB (Diener, 2000).
