Within the Positive Psychology's framework, this study intends to explore the relationship between Emotional Intelligence, Happiness and Flow, and university students' academic performance and subjective well-being.The sample included 215 participants, aged between 18 and 58 years (M=22.3; SD=4.91), from different courses and years (1stto 6th), of which 18.1% were student-workers. Most of the participants were females (81.9%), and studiedSocial Sciences (55.9%).The instruments included self-report scales (TEIQue, OHI, DFS-2, and JAWS), adapted to the Portuguese context and with good psychometric properties.Results indicated positive correlations between positive variables and academic performance and well-being, although lowercorrelations with objecticveacademic performance. Linear regression analyses showed that subjective well-being was the variable best explained by positive variables and that flow presented the greatest predictive power over academic performance. Implications for the academic performance and well-being's promotion in the university context are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study assessed the effect of variables such as life satisfaction, self-rated health, social support and coping styles on subjective well-being. The level of subjective well-being was studied in a sample of Mexican elderly persons from the state of Yucatan in Merida (n = 122) with an age range of 60-93 years. The results in women show that coping styles predicts subjective well-being in negative affects. Moreover, self-perception of health, coping styles, and satisfaction with life are adequate predictors of the cognitive dimension of subjective well-being. Results in men show that satisfaction with life and coping styles predict the cognitive dimension of subjective well-being. Findings point to the importance of exploring psychosocial variables in older adults. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this work is to analyze the contemporary idea of subjective well-being as equivalent to the classical notion of happiness. The parameters that derive from this subjective well-being are examined as well, in an effort to formulate a relationship with the law, which is understood as the entire body of normative prescriptions in force in a community. With that end in mind, the traditional Aristotelian notion of happiness is summarized to compare the differences between it and the idea of subjective well-being, the development of which occupies the body of this work. The conclusions point to the relationship with the effects - for understanding the law - that are derived from the methodologies related to the notion of subjective well-being.
