An investigation of subjective well-being in terms of coping with stress and decision-making in university students
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate subjective well-being in terms of coping with stress and decision-making in University students. The participants were 472 (237 female and 235 male, between 18-26 years old) university students. Data were collected from subjective well-being scale, Melbourne Decision-Making Questionnaire (DMQ) and coping with stress scale. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis were determined. As a result of the study, it was found that there was a significant negative relationship between subjective well-being, buck passing, procrastination and hyper vigilance. Also it was found that there was a significant positive relationship between subjective well-being and problem focused coping, seeking social support, decision self-esteem and vigilance. Besides, it was found that some approaches of coping with stress scale and some approaches of decision making significantly explain subjective well-being scale. ©IDOSI Publications, 2013.
