“…Eysenck & Eysenck, 1985;Furnham & Heaven, 1999). Furthermore, this finding is in accord with evidence that the core feature of Extraversion is reward sensitivity, rather than sociability (Lucas, Diener, Grob, Suh, & Shao, 2000). In contrast to the strong negative correlations between all seven primary scales of Stability and the hygiene composite reported by , in the present study, Stability correlated (positively) with the motivator, but not with the hygiene composite.…”

Two studies investigated the relationships between personality traits and aspects of job satisfaction. In Study 1, job applicants (n=250) completed the Eysenck Personality Profiler and the Work Values Questionnaire (WVQ), which requires respondents to rate various work-related facets according to the extent to which they contribute to their job satisfaction. These facets were combined into two composites (hygiene and motivator) based on previous research. The three personality superfactors accounted for a small percentage of the variance in importance ratings (about 5%). In Study 2, employees (n=82) completed a measure of the 'Big Five' personality traits and the Job Satisfaction Questionnaire (JSQ), which assesses both what respondents consider as important in their work environment as well as their satisfaction with their current job. Importance ratings were again combined into two composites while job satisfaction ratings were factor analyzed and three factors, differentiated along hygiene versus motivator lines, emerged. Personality traits again accounted for a small percentage of the total variance both in importance ratings and in levels of job satisfaction. It is concluded that personality does not have a strong or consistent influence either on what individuals perceive as important in their work environment or on their levels of job satisfaction. #

“…Previous research has found that affiliation, warmth, and trustworthiness are strongly correlated with each other, and all of them relate to the dimension of valence (Lucas, Diener, Grob, Suh, & Shao, 2000;. This fits well with the results of the current study, in which the results for these three traits were highly consistent.…”

“…The trait aspect of SWB, in contrast, is more stable and varies less strongly (i.e., in longer cycles) and at a smaller amplitude around the individual set point. In addition, trait SWB is determined to a greater extent by stable personality characteristics (e.g., extraversion, see [34]) and reveals a markedly higher temporal and situational consistency. Although these two aspects are differentiated clearly on a theoretical level, there are no concrete indications regarding how far one can talk about a "right now" (or state) SWB and specify when this changes into a "longer time period" (or trait) SWB.…”

Research has shown repeatedly that the "feeling better" effect of exercise is far more moderate than generally claimed. Examinations of subgroups in secondary analyses also indicate that numerous further variables influence this relationship. One reason for inconsistencies in this research field is the lack of adequate theoretical analyses. Well-being output variables frequently possess no construct definition, and little attention is paid to moderating and mediating variables. This article integrates the main models in an overview and analyzes how secondary analyses define well-being and which areas of the construct they focus on. It then applies a moderator and/or mediator framework to examine which person and environmental variables can be found in the existing explanatory approaches in sport science and how they specify the influence of these moderating and mediating variables. Results show that the broad understanding of well-being in many secondary analyses makes findings difficult to interpret. Moreover, physiological explanatory approaches focus more on affective changes in well-being, whereas psychological approaches also include cognitive changes. The approaches focus mostly on either physical or psychological person variables and rarely combine the two, as in, for example, the dual-mode model. Whereas environmental variables specifying the treatment more closely (e.g., its intensity) are comparatively frequent, only the social support model formulates variables such as the framework in which exercise is presented. The majority of explanatory approaches use simple moderator and/or mediator models such as the basic mediated (e.g., distraction hypothesis) or multiple mediated (e.g., monoamine hypotheses) model. The discussion draws conclusions for future research.Keywords Well-being . Exercise . Mediation . Moderation . Explanatory approaches Everyday assumptions about the effects of exercise on wellbeing are unanimously positive-as numerous popular science books confirm with promising titles such as The aerobics programs for total well-being [1] or Life skills: 225 ready-to-use health activities for success and well-being [2]. Even in the early years of scientific research in this field, few would have disagreed with the statement that "the 'feeling better' sensation that accompanies regular physical activity is so obvious that it is one of the few universally accepted benefits of exercise" ([3], p. 306). Nonetheless, a host of primary studies carried out between 1960 and the mid-1990s delivered no unequivocal confirmation of this hypothesis. As a result, studies since the 1990s have increasingly been integrated and compared in both narrative (e.g., [4,5]) and meta-analytic reviews (e.g., [6,7]).In contrast to popular science claims, quantitative secondary analyses reveal that the overall effects on (subjective) well-being (SWB) 1 are not only small but also show a great deal of variation. For example, McAuley and Rudolph ([8], p. 68) have written: "Although many studies extol the almost intui...
