“…Positive affect receives the highest response because happiness is often described in the form of positive affect and life satisfaction (Singh & Jha, 2008;Kuppens, Realo, Diener, 2008;Diener, 1984). Thus, it is indicated that the findings are in line with Aloia and Brecht (2014) who state that positive affect is positively correlated with happiness, mental health, and self-esteem; and negatively associated with depression and stress.…”

This research was conducted based on three considerations. Firstly, childhood is a critical developmental stage that forms the foundation for the psychological well-being and future learning development of children. Secondly, the prevalence of child and adolescent behavioral problems is increasing, assumed to be caused by unhappiness. Thirdly, studies related to happiness in early childhood in Indonesia are still lacking. Therefore, this study aims to explore the meaning, situation, and parties associated with happiness in children. Our study is exploratory using a qualitative approach. The respondents include 51 children aged 4 to 6 years. The research took place in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. We interviewed the respondents and later analyzed the data using content analysis. The latter consist of three coding steps: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The results show that, 1) the meaning of happiness refers to positive affects (55%), activities (28.9%), getting something (8.89%), positive physical conditions (4.44%), and affiliation (2.22%), 2) The situations that make children happy are activities (36.61%), learning (11.61%), entertainment (9.82%), and sports (2.62%), 3) The parties who make children happy are families (77.92%), extended families (3.90%), non-family (19.48%), God (1.30%) and toys (1.30%).

“…In terms of physical health, levels of affectionate communication have been inversely correlated with resting HR (Floyd et al, 2014), diurnal cortisol (Floyd & Riforgiate, 2008), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA 1c ; Floyd et al, 2007). From a mental health standpoint, affectionate communication in multiple studies is inversely correlated with stress and depression (e.g., Aloia & Brecht, 2017), although also being inversely correlated with loneliness (e.g., Floyd, 2014) and alexithymia (Hesse & Floyd, 2008). The social benefits of affectionate communication, on the other hand, have included key relational outcome variables of satisfaction, closeness, and commitment in multiple studies (e.g., Hesse et al, 2014; Hesse & Floyd, 2011), with other studies showing a positive correlation with the overall number of self‐reported close relationships (Hesse & Floyd, 2011).…”

Affection exchange theory predicts that both excessive affection and affection deprivation are associated with poorer health, compared with receiving the level of affectionate communication that one desires. A similar yet‐untested prediction is that affection deprivation is more aversive than excessive affection. This preregistered study tested both hypotheses on a battery of mental and physical health outcomes, including depression, loneliness, stress, physical pain, frequency of nightmares, and sleep quality, using a Census‐matched sample of U.S. American adults (N = 827). As hypothesized, receiving the right amount of affection was associated with more health‐supportive scores on all outcomes than either excessive or deficient affection. Similarly, excessive affection was associated with lower depression, loneliness, stress, and pain, and higher sleep quality, than affection deprivation.

“…Individuals having social support experience positive emotions and pleasant mood [15]. The presence of social support mitigates the impact of negative and perception and emotions such as stress [7]. From the findings of studies, it has been identified that social support is positively associated with psychological wellbeing [5,31,52,135].…”

Work–family conflict is a subject of interest for researchers in the field of organizational behavior for decades because of its negative impact on an individual’s life. The existing literature identified that workplace stressors contribute to work–family conflict and Perceived Organizational Politics emerged as an aversive workplace stressor. From empirical pieces of evidence, it is observed that perceived organizational politics and work–family conflict are indirectly associated with each other, and their impact on employees is unavoidable. To explore this uncovered relationship, at first, this study used a keywords co-occurrence network mapping approach and found that perceived organizational politics and work–family conflict are associated with each through various workplace variables. Further, with the help of a scoping review identify those specific variables, and, lastly, a systematic review approach used to identify a mechanism of how these identified variables form an association between perceived organizational politics and work–family conflict. Based on the findings of the systematic review, this study proposed a conceptual framework that extends the existing literature by providing new insight into concepts of perceived organizational politics by linking it with work–family conflict. This study introduced a novel way to develop a conceptual framework by linking three distinct approaches of research. In the last, this study proposed recommendations for future research.
