Dear All,
I am Vasudha, currently pursuing Ph.D from Gitam University and planning to select my research topic as Positive Psychology related to health issues and human well being, human strength/thriving concept. As per my initial research i reviewed and concluded psychological capital as a very positive variable for employee’s assessment but in the area of students the research is very less.
Can you please suggest or provide me an insight based on your expertise on how to relate psychological capital and happiness among students population. All the help in this area will be highly appreciated and i will be thankful for all the content and guidance.
Look forward for a positive response and extended support
With warm regards,
Vasudha

Hello Vasudha,
I strongly recommend that you consider a measure of Sense of Coherence developed by Aaron Antonovsky in 1979 as a part of his theory of salutogenesis. The SOC scale is an excellent measure of sense of purpose, meaningfulness and well-being that would be ideally suited to your PhD project.
Best wishes,
David Marks
