Belief in a zero-sum game and subjective well-being across 35 countries
Różycka-Tran, J.; Piotrowski, J. P.; Zemojtel-Piotrowska, M.; Jurek, P.; Osin, E. N.; Adams, B. G.; Ardi, R.; Baltatescu, S.; Bhomi, A. B.; Bogomaz, S.This article presents a short research report on the relationship between perceived antagonism in social relations measured using the Belief in a Zero-Sum Game (BZSG) scale, life satisfaction, and positive and negative affect. Given that individuals who believe that life is like a zero-sum game are likely to perceive their daily interactions with others as unfair, we expected that individuals with high BZSG exp...

Zemojtel-Piotrowska, M.; Piotrowskim J. P.; Osin, E. N.; Cieciuch, J.; Adams, B. G.; Ardi, R.; Baltatescu, S.; Bogomaz, S.; Bhomi, A. L.; Clinton, A.Objective: The Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) is a brief scale measuring positive human functioning. The study aimed to examine the factor structure and to explore the cross-cultural utility of the MHC-SF using bifactor models and exploratory structural equation modelling. Method: Using multigroup confirmatory analysis (MGCFA) we examined the measurement invariance of the MHC-SF in 38 countries (un...
Measurement invariance of Personal Well-Being Index (PWI-8) across 26 countries
Zemojtel-Piotrowska, M.; Piotrowski, J. P.; Cieciuch, J.; Adams, B. G.; Osin, E. N.; Ardi, R.; Baltatescu, S.; Bhomi, A. L.; Clinton, A.This report examines the measurement invariance of the Personal Well-being Index with 8 items (PWI-8). University students (N = 5731) from 26 countries completed the measure either through paper and pencil or electronic mode. We examined uni-dimensional structure of PWI and performed a Multi-group CFA to assess the measurement invariance across the 26 countries, using conventional approach and the alignment pro...
