Abstract

This study explores the perceptions of past, present, and future happiness and the sources of happiness of millennials, and the subgroups of late and early millennials, and male and female millennials. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to 1,580 millennials from eight technical institutions in eastern India. An 11-step ladder was used to assess their past, present, and future happiness. Their sources of happiness were assessed by filling out 10 incomplete sentences that started with “I feel happy….” The millennials felt that they would be happier in the future than they were in the past and are at the present, suggesting optimism about the future. Similarly, early millennials expected to be happier in the future than late millennials. The content analysis of the responses suggested that the happiness of millennials resided in interpersonal relationships, leisure activities, positive self-evaluation, achievements, comfort, prosocial behaviors, food, recognition, adventure, and material possessions. The sources of happiness of late millennials were mainly in interpersonal-focused behaviors and early millennials in self-focused behaviors; male millennials in interpersonal-focused behaviors, instrumental behaviors, and outdoor activities, and female millennials in expressive acts, indoor activities, and, achievement-oriented behaviors. Findings support the positive-activity model and folk theories.

千禧一代如何看待他们过去、现在和未来的幸福,他们的幸福在哪里?

摘要

本研究探讨了千禧一代对过去、现在和未来幸福的看法以及幸福的来源,以及千禧一代晚期和早期、男性和女性千禧一代的子群体。对来自印度东部八所技术机构的 1,580 名千禧一代进行了半结构化问卷调查。一个 11 级阶梯被用来评估他们过去、现在和未来的幸福感。他们的幸福来源是通过填写 10 个以“我感到幸福……”开头的不完整句子来评估的。千禧一代认为他们未来会比过去和现在更幸福,这表明他们对未来持乐观态度。同样,早期的千禧一代预计未来会比晚期的千禧一代更快乐。回应的内容分析表明,千禧一代的幸福在于人际关系、休闲活动、积极的自我评价、成就、舒适感、亲社会行为、食物、认可、冒险和物质财富。千禧一代的幸福来源主要是人际交往行为和早期的自我关注行为;男性千禧一代在以人际交往为中心的行为、工具行为和户外活动方面,以及女性千禧一代在表达行为、室内活动和成就导向行为方面。调查结果支持积极活动模型和民间理论。千禧一代的幸福来源主要是人际交往行为和早期的自我关注行为;男性千禧一代的人际行为、工具行为和户外活动,女性千禧一代的表现行为、室内活动和成就导向行为。调查结果支持积极活动模型和民间理论。千禧一代的幸福来源主要是人际交往行为和早期的自我关注行为;男性千禧一代的人际行为、工具行为和户外活动,女性千禧一代的表现行为、室内活动和成就导向行为。调查结果支持积极活动模型和民间理论。
