| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The current series of studies examined the construct validity of the interdependent happiness scale (measuring interpersonal harmony, quiescence, and ordinariness) across Japan, Poland, Philippines, as well as prefectures and states within Japan and the United States. Results supported that the interdependent happiness scale is uniquely capturing the happiness shared among collectivistic cultures, and further indicated that the scale might be affected by the immediate social structural environment close to the individual. Overall, the finding calls for the need to incorporate cultural awareness in measuring happiness across cultures.
