Children’s Subjective Well-Being, Peer Relationships and Resilience: An Integrative Literature Review

Abstract

This study presents an integrative review of the scientific literature on children's subjective well-being (SWB) and its association with peer relationships and resilience. Articles addressing children's SWB published in English and Portuguese from 2014 to 2020 were investigated. The data bases were PubMed, PsycINFO, SciELO, Scopus. 14 studies were selected after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Most of the articles were published in English, were empirical studies, with quantitative design, and samples of children in the school context. There was an association between children's SWB and peer relationships, with contribution of personal (e.g. sex) and contextual (e.g. school environment) variables to the relationship between these constructs. Individual (e.g. self-esteem) and contextual (e.g. positive parenting) aspects of resilience were found as variables that are related to children's SWB. The review highlights the potential of positive peer relationships in childhood as a predictor of both SWB and resilience.

Understanding and Measuring Child Well-being in the Region of Attica, Greece: Round four

“…Child well-being is currently measured with many indicators, the Middle Years Development Instrument (MDI) being the most contemporary on a global level (Guhn et al, 2012 ; Schonert-Reichl et al, 2011 , 2013 ). A number of other indicators have also been developed, with each approaching the subjective well-being of children differently and stressing, in most cases, life satisfaction (Borualogo & Casas, 2021 ; Casas et al, 2013 ; Casas & González-Carrasco, 2021 ; Dinisman et al, 2012 ; Huebner & Furlong, 2016 ; Leto et al, 2021 ; Llosada-Gistau et al, 2015 ; Montserrat et al, 2015a ; Montserrat, Dinisman et al, 2015a , 2015b ; Moreira et al, 2021 ; Rodriguez de la Vega, 2014 ; Savahl et al, 2017 ; Savahl et al, 2021 ; Viñas et al, 2019 ). According to Michalos and Land ( 2018 ), more emphasis must be given to the subjective indicators of well-being than the objective ones when policies are planned.…”
