“…In another study using structural equation modelling, non-smoking predicted measures of subjective well-being and vice versa in older adults (mean age = 64 years) with a follow-up of four years [17]. The highest path coefficient was observed for smoking status predicting subsequent smoking (1.77), which is in line with our study showing high longitudinal correlations of health behaviors and smoking having the highest value of these.…”

“…It enables a more detailed analysis of individual components of health behavior and subjective well-being as their distinctive impacts on the latent variable are investigated. In a study using structural equation modeling [17], the effects of smoking on subsequent lower life satisfaction, lower optimism, and less positive affect (path coefficients = 0.10-0.025) were stronger than the effects in the opposite direction (path coefficients = 0.04-0.08) in a four-year follow-up on older adults (mean age = 64 years). The cross-sectional associations between smoking and subjective well-being at baseline were also statistically significant (path coefficients = 0.04-0.05).…”

Background The bidirectional relationship between health behavior and subjective well-being has previously been studied sparsely, and mainly for individual health behaviors and regression models. In the present study, we deepen this knowledge focusing on the four principal health behaviors and using structural equation modeling with selected covariates. Methods The follow-up data (n = 11,804) was derived from a population-based random sample of working-age Finns from two waves (2003 and 2012) of the Health and Social Support (HeSSup) postal survey. Structural equation modeling was used to study the cross-sectional, cross-lagged, and longitudinal relationships between the four principal health behaviors and subjective well-being at baseline and after the nine-year follow-up adjusted for age, gender, education, and self-reported diseases. The included health behaviors were physical activity, dietary habits, alcohol consumption, and smoking status. Subjective well-being was measured through four items comprising happiness, interest, and ease in life, and perceived loneliness. Results Bidirectionally, only health behavior in 2003 predicted subjective well-being in 2012, whereas subjective well-being in 2003 did not predict health behavior in 2012. In addition, the cross-sectional interactions in 2003 and in 2012 between health behavior and subjective well-being were statistically significant. The baseline levels predicted their respective follow-up levels, the effect being stronger in health behavior than in subjective well-being. Conclusion The four principal health behaviors together predict subsequent subjective well-being after an extensive follow-up. Although not particularly strong, the results could still be used for motivation for health behavior change, because of the beneficial effects of health behavior on subjective well-being.

Impact of tobacco and/or nicotine products on health and functioning: a scoping review and findings from the preparatory phase of the development of a new self-report measure

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Measuring self-reported experience of health and functioning is important for understanding the changes in the health status of individuals switching from cigarettes to less harmful tobacco and/or nicotine products (TNP) or reduced-risk products (RRP) and for supporting tobacco harm reduction strategies. Methods This paper presents insights from three research activities from the preparatory phase of the development of a new self-report health and functioning measure. A scoping literature review was conducted to identify the positive and negative impact of TNP use on health and functioning. Focus groups (n = 29) on risk perception and individual interviews (n = 40) on perceived dependence in people who use TNPs were reanalyzed in the context of health and functioning, and expert opinion was gathered from five key opinion leaders and five technical consultants. Results Triangulating the findings of the review of 97 articles, qualitative input from people who use TNPs, and expert feedback helped generate a preliminary conceptual framework including health and functioning and conceptually-related domains impacted by TNP use. Domains related to the future health and functioning measurement model include physical health signs and symptoms, general physical appearance, functioning (physical, sexual, cognitive, emotional, and social), and general health perceptions. Conclusions This preliminary conceptual framework can inform future research on development and validation of new measures for assessment of overall health and functioning impact of TNPs from the consumers’ perspective.

“…Previously, heavy alcohol consumption predicted poorer life satisfaction during a 15-year follow-up with the same, but categorized, life satisfaction scale as used here [ 14 ]. Another study [ 13 ] concluded by structural equation modeling that smoking predicted significantly poorer life satisfaction 4 years later. Further, the study by Mujcic and Oswald [ 11 ] explored the association between initial fruit and vegetable consumption and later life satisfaction in a 2-year follow-up adjusting for exercise, smoking, alcohol consumption and eating patterns; consumption of fruit and vegetables predicted subsequent life satisfaction and an average increase of 0.24 in life satisfaction (range: 0–10) was observed when the consumption of fruits and vegetables was increased by eight portions a day.…”

“…Healthy dietary patterns have been positively associated with good life satisfaction on a day-to-day basis [ 9 , 10 ], have improved life satisfaction if changed in a favorable direction even when adjusted for other health behaviors [ 11 , 12 ], and have predicted better life satisfaction in a 2-year follow-up [ 11 ]. Furthermore, being a smoker predicted poorer life satisfaction 4 years later [ 13 ], and high alcohol consumption poorer life satisfaction during a 15-year follow-up [ 14 ]. In addition, physical activity has shown a positive association with life satisfaction on a day-to-day basis [ 15 ] and increased physical activity has been shown to improve life satisfaction [ 16 ].…”

Health behavior of working-aged Finns predicts self-reported life satisfaction in a population-based 9-years follow-up

Background Previous studies have shown positive association between health behavior and life satisfaction, but the studies have mostly been cross-sectional, had follow-up times up to 5 years or focused on only one health behavior domain. The aim of the study was to explore how principal health behavior domains predict life satisfaction as a composite score in a previously unexplored longitudinal setting. Methods The present study tested whether a health behavior sum score (range 0–4) comprising of dietary habits, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity predicted subsequent composite score of life satisfaction (range 4–20). Data included responses from 11,000 working-age Finns who participated in the Health and Social Support (HeSSup) prospective population-based postal survey. Results Protective health behavior in 2003 predicted (p < .001) better life satisfaction 9 years later when sex, age, education, major diseases, and baseline life satisfaction were controlled for. The β in the linear regression model was − 0.24 (p < .001) corresponding to a difference of 0.96 points in life satisfaction between individuals having the best and worst health behavior. Conclusion Good health behavior has a long-term beneficial impact on subsequent life satisfaction. This knowledge could strengthen the motivation for improvement of health behavior particularly on an individual level but also on a policy level.

Longitudinal and Reciprocal Relationships Between Psychological Well-Being and Smoking

Abstract: Findings warrant further exploration of the relationships between PWB and smoking, and support the incorporation of PWB-boosting components into existing treatments.
