It has been known that it shows the negative correlation between social comparison and happiness. Nevertheless, the correlation depends on self-concept and motivation of comparison which a person take. Current study examined the effect of cultural self-concept (interdependent self, subjective-objective self) on social comparison and happiness (subjective well-being and psychological well-being), Total 2000 among 30-69 years old respondents participated in this survey. We found that, first, people with high interdependent self feel less happiness as they take more social comparison, but the people with low interdependent self do not show the relational pattern. Second, people with objective self show the negative correlation with happiness and social comparison, but there is no correlation with happiness and social comparison among people with subjective self.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of academic stress, self-efficacy and problem solving ability on subjective happiness of nursing college students. Participants in this study were 348 nursing students from 2 universities in B city. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 22.0 program with real number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. The mean score for subjective happiness was 41.91±9.53(range: 9 to 63). Subjective happiness negatively correlated with academic stress(r=-.523, p<.001) and positively correlated with self-efficacy(r=.515, p<.001), problem solving ability(r=.466, p<.001). Significant predictors of subjective happiness included academic stress((β=-.351, p<.001), self-esteem(β=.255, p<.001), and problem solving ability(β=.132, p=.049), and the explanation power was 37.2%. Therefore, we need various program development that can enhance self-efficacy, problem solving ability, and academic stress management in order to improve nursing students' subjective happiness.

This study focused on the effects of median type on drivers' subjective sense of speed and the changes in this sense by driver age. Participants were 61 drivers: 20 young (aged 20-39 years), 19 middle-aged (40-59 years), and 22 older drivers (60+ years). The participants watched each of two driving scenarios, showing either a guardrail-equipped or a concrete median. The participants were asked to push a button when they perceived speeds of 60 km/h, 80 km/h, or 100 km/h. All drivers perceived higher speeds in the guardrail condition than in the concrete condition. Perceived speeds increased with driver age in both guardrail and concrete conditions. These results mean median type affects drivers' subjective sense of speed even as driver age increases, and that drivers' subjective sense of speed tends to increase with age.

Methodologically, STATA 15.0 was employed for complex sample mean and standard deviation calculations, complex sample weighted percentages, complex sample t-tests, and multiple regression analyses. Common factors influencing both subjective health and health-related quality of life included education level, household size, depression, and stress. Age, binge drinking, and physical activity were identified as factors influencing subjective health perception. Insurance type, employment status, and sleep disorders emerged as factors impacting health-related quality of life.
