過去,華人幸福之相關因子的探討,仍多以西方理論為主。有鑑於此,本研究旨在加入本土心理學的觀點,探究華人性格特質(七大基本性格)及華人文化價值(華人中庸思維與華人感恩傾向)對華人幸福(主觀幸福感與幸福記憶)的影響。研究採問卷調查法,有效樣本為422名大學生及成人。結果發現:華人基本性格、華人中庸思維,以及感恩傾向與華人幸福均有顯著正相關。基本性格中,精明幹練、勤儉恆毅、內向沉靜、豪邁直爽,以及淡泊知足為主觀幸福感的預測因子;外向活躍則為幸福記憶的預測因子。此外,在控制了性格對幸福的影響之後,華人文化價值信念中的中庸思維及感恩傾向對預測華人幸福仍有增益價值(incremental value)。本文因此結論:以華人本土的角度探究華人幸福感的影響因子有其必要性,並提出若干討論與建議。
The purpose of the study was to explore the joint effects of Chinese personality traits and cultural values on well-being. An indigenous perspective was adopted to explore the relation between Chinese cultural values (moderation and gratitude), Chinese personality traits, and Chinese well-being (subjective well-being and well-being memory). Structured questionnaires were completed by a sample of 422 students and adults (aged from 18 to 63 years old, with a mean age of 28.29). Results of multiple regression analyses showed that Chinese personality traits, moderation, and gratitude all significantly correlated with well-being. Furthermore, after controlling for the effects of personality, Chinese cultural values still had incremental effects on well-being.
