Vrline, vrednote in subjektivno blagostanje

Osredkar, Nika (avtor), Avsec, Andreja (mentor)

Pomemben prelom v pozitivni psihologiji se je zgodil, ko sta avtorja Peterson in Seligman leta 2004 predstavila svojo klasifikacijo vrlin, s katero sta želela zagotoviti enotno besedišče za preučevanje pozitivnih vidikov osebnosti. Vrline so pozitivne, zaželene in moralno cenjene lastnosti, h katerim posameznik stremi s svojim vedenjem in so povezane s številnimi pozitivnimi življenjskimi izidi. V magistrski nalogi sem preučevala, kako so vrline povezane z vrednotami, osebnostnimi lastnostmi in subjektivnim blagostanjem ter če poleg osebnosti in vrednot, dodatno prispevajo k subjektivnemu blagostanju. V mojo raziskavo je bilo vključenih 214 mladih na prehodu v odraslost, starih od 18 do 30 let (M = 24,49 let, SD = 3,04), od teh je bilo 71,5 % žensk. V raziskavi sem uporabila štiri vprašalnike: vprašalnik vrlin – krajšo različico (Character Strengths Rating Form – CSRF; Ruch, Martínez-Martí, Proyer in Harzer, 2014), kratko obliko Schwartzove lestvice vrednot (Short Schwartz's Value Scale – SSVS; Lindeman in Verkasalo, 2005), vprašalnik psihičnega zdravja (Mental Health Continuum – Short Form – MHC-SF; Keyes, 2002) in lestvice velikih pet (Big Five Aspects Scales – BFAS; DeYoung, Quilty in Peterson, 2007). Rezultati so pokazali, da obstaja pomembna povezanost vrlin, ki so definirane tudi kot vrednote v akciji, z vrednotami in velikimi petimi osebnostnimi lastnostmi, vendar pa ta povezanost ni tako visoka, da bi bil obstoj omenjenih konstruktov hkrati nesmiseln. Vrline se povezujejo tudi s subjektivnim blagostanjem ter s tem tvorijo povezavo z eno izmed osnovnih sestavin duševnega zdravja in poleg osebnosti in vrednot pomembno prispevajo k subjektivnemu blagostanju. Nazadnje sem v nalogi predstavila še nekaj omejitev raziskave ter navedla smernice za nadaljnje raziskovanje.

Izvleček

Authors Peterson and Seligman presented their Classification of Character Strengths and Virtues in 2004 and created a defining moment in the research field of positive psychology. They aimed for their classification to provide a unified vocabulary for researching positive aspects of personality. Character strengths are positive and morally valued characteristics, related to many positive outcomes. In my research, I was interested in how character strengths are related to values, personality and subjective well-being and whether they, along with personality characteristics and values, contribute to predicting of subjective well-being. My sample consisted of 214 people, aged 18 to 30 (M = 24,49 years, SD = 3,04), of which 71,5 % were women. I used four questionnaires: Character Strengths Rating Form (CSRF; Ruch, Martínez-Martí, Proyer in Harzer, 2014), Short Schwartz's Value Scale (SSVS; Lindeman and Verkasalo, 2005), Mental Health Continuum – Short Form (MHC-SF; Keyes, 2002) and Big Five Aspects Scales (BFAS; DeYoung, Quilty and Peterson, 2007). The results showed significant correlations between character strengths, that are also defined as values in action, with values and the big five personality traits, but these correlations are not so high that the separate existence of the mentioned constructs would be unnecessary. Character strengths are also correlated with subjective well-being and are therefore linked to one of the basic components of mental health as they also add a significant contribution to predicting subjective well-being. I also presented some limitations of my study and provided guidelines for further research.
