在目前的研究中，生活满意度（LS）和主观幸福感（SWB）的情感成分之间的关系进行了检查，在21个欧洲国家的40，487人的样本使用欧洲社会调查的数据。在运行多层次的验证性因素分析，以建立跨国家的结构的测量不变性，个人层面的数据集连接到现有的国家层面的总体人格特质，文化价值观和人类发展指数（HDI）。分层线性模型（HLM）分析的结果表明，LS是最好的预测积极和消极的影响（PA和NA，分别），但也可以预测的混合情绪（ME）的程度。在国家一级，全国平均得分的外向性和神经质调节LS和ME之间的关系在不同的方向，而没有两个人格特质有显着影响LS的关系PA和NA。生存/自我表达和人类发展指数排名影响LS-PA和LS-ME的关系，而个人主义/集体主义没有。我们的研究表明，除了分析NA和PA的单独影响，在SWB研究中考虑情绪复杂性也很重要，而这些分析需要考虑文化方面的调节作用，如生存/自我表达价值观和国家的发展水平。我们的研究结果还强调了采用代表性样本的重要性，因为参与者的年龄差异会对结果产生深远的影响。
In the current study, the relationship between life satisfaction (LS) and the affective components of subjective well-being (SWB) was examined in a sample of 40,487 people across 21 European countries using data from the European Social Survey. After running multilevel confirmatory factor analyses in order to establish the measurement invariance of the constructs across the countries, the individual-level dataset was linked to available country-level aggregate personality traits, cultural values, and human development index (HDI). Results from hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) analysis showed that LS is best predicted by positive and negative affect (PA and NA, respectively), but may also be predicted by the degree of mixed emotions (ME). At the country level, national mean scores of Extraversion and Neuroticism moderated the relationship between LS and ME in different directions, whereas neither of the two personality traits had a significant impact on the relationship of LS to PA and NA. Survival/self-expression and the HDI ranking influenced the LS-PA and LS-ME relationships, whereas individualism/collectivism did not. Our research indicates that in addition to analyzing separate effects of NA and PA, it is also important to consider emotional complexity in SWB research, whereas these analyses need to take into account the moderating effect of cultural aspects, such as survival/self-expression values and countries’ level of development. Our findings also emphasize the importance of employing representative samples, as the age variance of participants can have a profound impact on results.
