Intimate relationship and its significance for eudaimonic well-being in young adults
2020
BackgroundPrevious studies indicate that being in a relationship has a beneficial effect on the physical and mental health and also significantly affects the quality of life. One of the essential elements of the relationship is intimacy, which includes sharing experiences, support and mutual understanding, as well as respect and care for the good of the partner. Being in a relationship, the nature of this relationship (marriage vs. informal relationship) as well as the level of intimacy and the assessment of the quality of the relationship may be in relation to the personal sense of well-being. In this research we intended to estimate the significance of these variables for the sense of wel…
Relationships Between Career Indecision, Search for Work Self-Efficacy, and Psychological Well-Being in Italian Never-Employed Young Adults.
2017
Although different studies have investigated career choices as cognitive acts of decision-making, non-cognitive components also play an important role. The study tries to develop an empirically based model of career decision-making process linking cognitive (search for work self-efficacy - SWSE) and non-cognitive (psychological well-being - PWB) components. In particular, the study investigates, among 148 never-employed Italian young adults, to what extent the relationship between SWSE and career indecision in terms of lack of readiness (LoR) can be explained by their common relationship with PWB. Results highlighted that SWSE is negatively associated with LoR when considered in absence of …
Deciding on the direction of career and life : personal goals, identity development, and well-being during the transition to adulthood
2017
Humans make efforts to manage their lives, and they do this by setting goals and making decisions. When they commit to their decisions, they construct their identity. This research aimed to study young people’s personal goal contents and appraisals, and how these constructs were related to identity and career identity development and subjective well-being. The theoretical basis of this research comprised the life-span model of motivation (Nurmi, 2004; Salmela-Aro, 2009), the conceptualisation of phase- adequate engagement (Dietrich, Parker, & Salmela-Aro, 2012), and the dual-cycle model of identity development (Luyckx, Goossens, Soenens, & Beyers, 2006; Luyckx et al., 2008). The data for th…
Reflecting on Work Values with Young Unemployed Adults in Finland
2019
In this article, we explore the internal conversations about the work values of young unemployed adults in Finland. We draw on the theoretical concept of internal conversation by Margaret Archer in order to shift the focus from the individual work values to the interplay between subjective concerns and structural circumstances. The data consist of six group interviews conducted among 29 young unemployed adults. We argue that the internal conversations on work values of young unemployed adults constitute five significant concerns: self-realization and opportunity to contribute to society; sufficient income to live independently; social expectations; challenges of finding employment; and unsu…

El pòlip de Trembley: L'"animal-planta" que va sacsejar la biologia del segle XVIII
2013
Els experiments d’Abraham Trembley amb l’hidra d’aigua dolça no només van sorprendre els seus contemporanis per la seva espectacularitat, sinó que els seus resultats també van causar un enorme trasbals en la comunitat científica del seu temps.

Ķermeņa tēla uztvere un fizisko aktivitāšu līmenis saistībā ar subjektīvo labklājību
2019
Bakalaura darba mērķis bija apkopot šobrīd zināmo informāciju par subjektīvo labklājību, fizisko aktivitāti un ķermeņa tēla uztveri. Ne mazāk svarīgi bija izprast fiziskās aktivitātes līmeņa un ķermeņa tēla uztveres ietekmi uz subjektīvo labklājību. Kā arī mērķis bija ievākt datus, izmantojot aptaujas, lai noskaidrotu vai pastāv statistiski nozīmīga saistība starp subjektīvo labklājību un ķermeņa tēla uztveri un fiziskās aktivitātes līmeni. Pētījumā piedalījās 148 brīvprātīgie respondenti vecumā no 16 līdz 53. Visiem respondentiem tika veikti subjektīvās labklājības mērījumi izmantojot Apmierinātības ar dzīvi skalu (SWLS) (Diener et al., 2006). Kā arī katram tika veikti fiziskās aktivitātes…
