The association between age and subjective wellbeing has been examined across
different samples and obser?vational time frames, most often indicating a
decline in subjective wellbeing with age or a U-shaped relation. Although
various contextual variables have been examined as moderators of this
relation, the moderating effect of social spending has not been investigated
so far. Given that social spending is potentially beneficial for wellbeing
and that social spending in Europe is primarily elderly-oriented, we assumed
that in countries with higher social spending expenditures, there is a more
positive effect of age on subjective wellbeing. We used cross-sectional
hierarchical linear modelling (HLM) analysis and the data from the ninth
round of the European Social Survey, including 29 countries. Our results
show that age is generally negatively related, while age squared is
positively related to subjec?tive wellbeing, indicating a U-shaped relation
between age and wellbeing. Additionally, social spending at the aggregate
level is a significant determinant of wellbeing at the individual level.
Most importantly, social spending is a significant positive moderator of
this association: with increasing social spending levels, aging is more
positively related to wellbeing.

This brief defines student wellbeing and outlines seven evidence-informed pathways that schools can take to promote student wellbeing and develop their school as an enabling institution. The acronym PROSPER is applied as an organizer for both the psychological elements of wellbeing and for these Positive Education pathways. These pathways focus on encouraging Positivity, building Relationships, facilitating Outcomes and a sense of competence, focusing on Strengths, fostering a sense of Purpose, enhancing Engagement and teaching Resilience. Each pathway draws on both the principles of positive psychology and the educational research that identifies the impact of each pathway for student learning. The benefits of a school-wide focus on student wellbeing for student engagement in learning and their success in school and in life are outlined. Practical guidelines for the development and implementation of educational policy that has student wellbeing as its central focus are also provided

Wellbeing ist ein zentrales Konzept zur Erfassung der Zufriedenheit der Bürgerinnen und Bürger mit und in ihrer sozialen, politischen und ökonomischen Lage. Es sind insbesondere die erlebten Bedingungen vor Ort entscheidend – und damit auch die lokale Wohlfahrtsproduktion. Dort sind neben den Kommunen als staatliche Instanz ebenso Initiativen, Nichtkommerzielle Organisationen, Vereine und Verbände als wichtige Wohlfahrtsproduzenten entscheidend. Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes beleuchten aus einer vergleichenden Perspektive verschiedene Aspekte und Dimensionen lokaler Wohlfahrtsproduktion und deren Effekte auf die Zufriedenheit der Bürgerinnen und Bürger. Dabei werden Beispiele aus Russland und Deutschland, insbesondere den beiden Städten Petrozavodsk und Tübingen sowie der Republik Karelien und Baden-Württembergs näher beleuchtet: theoretische Grundlagen und gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen, Einstellungen der Bevölkerungen, partizipative Projekte und Maßnahmen der Wohlfahrtsproduktion.

AbstractIn this article, I examine how human wellbeing is constructed transnationally. Whereas much attention has been paid to migrants based in the North, how the out‐migration of kin affects the construction of human wellbeing of those living 'back home' remains little understood. Existing literature has tended to focus on the impact of financial remittances but the broader psychosocial impacts affecting human wellbeing outcomes have received less attention. In this article I suggest that this gap might be filled by adopting a human wellbeing approach to deepen understanding of what Peru‐based immediate relatives and close friends regard as the benefits and challenges of this migration. By examining how human wellbeing is constructed across material, perceptual and relational domains, this approach offers greater holism in analysis. I also extend work on 'social remittances' by offering insights into the meanings that ensure that migration continues to be regarded in Peru as a livelihood improvement strategy worth pursuing.
