Black Husbands' Satisfaction with Their Family Life

“…In their national study, Campbell, Converse, and Rodgers (1976) found that family life was ranked third most important to respondents (behind health and marriage) among the 15 domains of life that were evaluated. Three major studies found that, of any domain investigated, satisfaction with family life was the most highly correlated with overall life satisfaction (Andrews and Withey, 1974;Bharadwaj and Wilkening, 1977;Campbell et al, 1976). For black Americans, the importance of the family has been recognized by generations of writers, with some stressing weaknesses within the family institution (e.g., Frazier, 1939;Moynihan, 1965) and others, strengths (e.g., Billingsley, 1968;Hill, 1972).…”

A Comparison Between Bottom–Up, Top–Down, and Bidirectional Models of Relationships Between Global and Life Facet Satisfaction

“…Near, Rice, and Hunt (1980) viewed satisfaction with work, family, leisure, and political activities as leading to satisfaction with life in general Rice et al's (1985) model also proposed bottom-up influences in which individuals are seen to subjectively aggregate satisfactions in domains such as "family, work, friendships, housing, transportation, religion, self-esteem, free time, financial secunty, and neighborhood" (p 298) in evaluating the overall quality of life In general, bottom-up theones proposed that perceptions of structural aspects of the environment lead to satisfaction within vanous life domains Then, domain-specific satisfactions provide the major input data for evaluations of overall life satisfaction (Bharadwaj & Wilkening, 1977, Headey et al , 1985, Near, 1984 Social indicators research (Glatzer & Mohr, 1987) has proceeded along the lines of bottom-up theones under the rationale that changes in overall life satisfaction can be effected by addressing social concerns within specific domains of life…”

Characterization of Subjective Well-being through the application of Ed Diener’s Life Satisfaction Scale in students of the Antonio José de Sucre University Corporation in Sincelejo during the first semester of 2015/Caracterización del Bienestar Subjetivo

“…Otros estudios, como el realizado por Bharadwaj y Wilkening (1977), establece que la valoración sobre la satisfacción con la vida está determinada por los siguientes aspectos: familia, condiciones de vida, trabajo, salud, actividades de ocio e ingresos; así mismo, Diener, Suh, E.M., Lucas y Smith (1999) han diferenciado dentro del componente cognitivo entre una satisfacción con la vida y con una serie de dominios de satisfacción concretos, relacionados con el afecto positivo, el afecto negativo, la satisfacción con la vida y los dominios de satisfacción; en todos estos casos los jóvenes no presentan mayores preocupaciones por su estado propio de apego a los padres o cuidadores, así como el estar siendo amparados por estos en cuidados económicos, educativos, mé-dicos, de alimentación e incluso de recreación.…”
