Background and Purpose: This study aimed to identify patient motivation for physical activity before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods: We conducted 14 semi-structured interviews of seven patients (two of each patient): one before starting a conditioning regimen and one after leaving the protected environment. All interviews were recorded and analyzed using the inductive content analysis method. The data collection period was May to December 2018. Results: The participants comprised three men and four women aged 40-70 years. The patients underwent bone marrow, umbilical cord blood, or peripheral HSCT. The patients' motivation for physical activity before and after HSCT was classified into six categories and categorized into five themes including to overcome HSCT, to look after myself, to respond to the donor, the existence of supporters, and encouragement from supporters. Conclusions and implications for practice: The categories and themes developed here based on patient responses provide an important perspective that should be promoted among healthcare providers who care for patients undergoing HSCT.

This study is to determine the relationship between perceived stress and resilience with happiness. This study used a descriptive, cross-sectional design. A representative sample of 310 pre-university students were selected through multistage sampling. The study utilized Perceived Stress Scale, Resilience Scale, and Subjective Happiness Scale. The finding reveals that there is a difference between males and females' pre-university students in terms of happiness variable. Female subjects are happier compared to males. There are simple and multiple relationships between perceived stress and resilience with happiness among pre-university students. Increased level of resilience and decreased level of perceived stress are associated with students’ happiness. Based on the results, enhancing the students' level of happiness should receive more attention in order to produce professional graduates who are academically competent, and able to adapt to their environment. Directions for future research are discussed.

Happiness is currently one of the primary indicators of social progress in modern society, particularly among students at higher learning institutions. The study examines the relationship between intrinsic motivation, life satisfaction, and happiness. 285 business faculty students at a higher learning institution in Malaysia enrolled in a bachelor's degree programme received online surveys. The results demonstrated a positive and significant relationship between happiness and the two independent variables of intrinsic motivation and life satisfaction. This study sheds light on how offering extracurricular activities can boost students' pleasure in higher learning and improve students’ intrinsic motivation and life satisfaction
