Abstract:

This study sought to examine the roles of creativity and security in the relationship between adults’ subjective socioeconomic status and psychological well-being. A total of 556 urban adults aged between 18 and 60 participated in this study. They anonymously completed questionnaires assessing subjective socioeconomic status, psychological well-being, creativity, and security. The results showed that: 1) After controlling for age and objective socioeconomic status, subjective socioeconomic status predicted psychological well-being. 2) Creativity mediated the relationships between socioeconomic status and psychological well-being. 3) Security moderated this mediating path through creativity. Specifically, the association between subjective socioeconomic status and creativity was stronger for adults with higher security. Thus, there are both mediating and moderating factors influencing the relationship between adults’ subjective socioeconomic status and psychological well-being.

Key words: subjective socioeconomic status, psychological well-being, security, creativity

摘要:

为探讨主观社会经济地位对心理幸福感的影响,以及创造力的中介作用和安全感的调节作用,采用问卷法调查了556名18~60岁城市成年人的主观社会经济地位、安全感、创造力和心理幸福感。结果发现:(1)主观社会经济地位正向预测心理幸福感;(2)性格优势之创造力是主观社会经济地位与心理幸福感的中介变量;(3)安全感调节了中介过程的前半路径。只有当个体的安全感较高时,主观社会经济地位对创造力才存在显著的正向预测作用。结果表明,提升社会经济地位的同时,还需要提升个体的安全感,这样才能更好地促进创造力的发展,并进一步增加个体的心理幸福感。
