| Popis: | (M.A.) -- Towson University, 2017 The goal of the present study was to test a model of gratitude, psychological well-being, and academic engagement in college students. Based on the broaden and build theory of positive emotions, this study suggested that the positive emotion of gratitude would build psychological well-being in students and, in turn, predict academic engagement. A total of 330 college students completed a measure of gratitude (GRAT-R), sub-scales of a psychological well-being measure (RYFF), and sub-scales of a measure of academic engagement (PALS). Results of this study did not support the hypotheses that gratitude and psychological well-being together would predict students’ reports of academic engagement. Limitations of this study and future directions are discussed. http://library.towson.edu/digital/collection/etd/id/59846 |
