Human beings want to live in a state of happiness and prosperity, but happiness is important not just for the well-being of individuals but for the well-being of society. To ensure the maximization of happiness, it is necessary to consider more than just money, and rather include the right understanding of happiness at the individual level, the family level, the society level, and the environmental (nature) level. This paper contributes to the existing body of knowledge by consolidating the findings of the literature; grouping those into major themes and sub-themes; describing the mechanisms based on the empirical papers by highlighting the independent, dependent, control, and moderating variables, to study the causal relationships between variables under study; proposing an agenda for future research; and informing the policymakers about decisions influencing the human happiness level through legislative rules and regulations. Our results suggest prioritizing the conceptualization of happiness while computing the happiness level at the individual or collective levels. Furthermore, the study recommends governments to establish the conditions enabling individuals to report happiness independently from the political pressure to answer strategically for impressive happiness level figures at the macro level.

“…Moreover, these studies usually do not focus on developmental changes in SOC strategies themselves, but on the association of SOC strategies use with other variables which changes are examined [e.g. 8, 9,10,11,12]. An instrument measuring strategies described by the SOC model is the SOC-Questionnaire (Selection, Optimization, and Compensation Questionnaire), which was originally created in the German language, and translated into English by its authors [13].…”

Background: Selection, optimization and compensation strategies (SOC strategies) are the life management strategies that contribute to successful development. The studies conducted so far have consistently indicated a relationship between the use of these strategies and well-being. In contrast, the relationship between SOC strategies and impulsivity has not yet been empirically examined, although there are premises to assume its existence. The aim of the study was to compare the use of SOC strategies in early, middle and late adulthood, and to investigate the relationship between the use of SOC strategies and well-being and impulsivity. In addition, the study involved a newly developed Polish version of the SOC Questionnaire (SOC48-PL).Methods: The study sample comprised 589 Poles from three age groups: early adulthood (n = 186, 20-35 years), middle adulthood (n = 165, 40-55 years) and late adulthood (n = 238, 60-85 years). In the study, in addition to the SOC48-PL questionnaire, the Short Depression-Happiness Scale (SDHS) and the Short UPPS-P Impulsivity Scale (S UPPS-P) were used.Results: Developmental differences in the use of SOC strategies are rather slight, with a considerable individual differences within age groups. The study revealed some indications of a “developmental peak” of SOC strategies in middle adulthood. The use SOC strategies is positively related to well-being. In turn, the relationship between the use of SOC strategies and impulsivity is negative, especially for two dimensions of impulsivity: lack of premeditation and lack of perseverance. Conclusions: The results only slightly confirm the assumed age-related differences in the use of SOC strategies and point to a large role of individual differences. The revealed relationships of SOC strategy use with well-being and impulsivity are consistent with expectations. The results obtained in the Polish sample confirm the repeatedly revealed positive role of the SOC strategies use for well-being. In contrast, the negative association of SOC strategy use with impulsivity may suggest that for impulsive individuals, spontaneous use of these life-management strategies may be difficult and less likely than those with low impulsivity.

Введение. В статье отмечен исследовательский интерес к проблематике личностных ценностей применительно к поздним периодам онтогенеза личности. В контексте субъектного подхода автором теоретически обосновывается рассмотрение самоактуализации пенсионера как одного из критериев его адаптационной готовности к новым условиям жизнедеятельности в связи с изменением социального статуса. В работе представлен эмпирический анализ ценностно-смысловых характеристик военных пенсионеров, и проверяется гипотеза об их специфике с учетом уровня самоактуализации пенсионеров. Методы. В процессе исследования были использованы методика Ш. Шварца для изучения ценностей личности и краткая шкала измерения самоактуализации. Объем выборки составил 130 человек. Выборка была разделена на основную (65 человек – военные пенсионеры) и контрольную (65 человек – гражданские пенсионеры). Результаты и их обсуждение. Специфика ценностно-смысловой сферы военных пенсионеров была выявлена и описана в статье на основе сравнения с характеристиками ценностно-смысловой сферы гражданских пенсионеров. В качестве ценностных приоритетов военных пенсионеров эмпирически зафиксированы конформность, традиции и безопасность. В группе гражданских пенсионеров была зафиксирована большая дифференциация индивидуальных ценностных выборов респондентов. По таким ценностным выборам, как власть, достижение, стимуляция, универсализм, доброта, традиции, конформность, были зафиксированы статистически достоверные различия между респондентами в основной и контрольной выборках. Самостоятельность выступает в качестве ценностного приоритета и военных, и гражданских пенсионеров с высоким уровнем самоактуализации. У пенсионеров с низким уровнем самоактуализации ценностными приоритетами выступают власть и стимуляция.
