| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The research team has been conducting quantitative and qualitative research on the factors that facilitate subjected well-being in Japan and in France. All four researchers have extensive experience living and working in Japan. Three of the four researchers also have extensive experience in France. Accordingly, the interviews and questionnaires were conducted in the respondent's native languages (Japanese or French), thus assuring no miscommunication. During the period between of the grant-in-aid project, the researchers have published three papers in international peer reviewed journals with high impact factors. They have also made three peer-reviewed presentations at international conferences.
We identified eight original factors affecting subjective well-being at work for Japanese regular employees: meaningful work, relationships, culture, workspace, evaluation, time off, financial benefits, and diversity at work. Consequently, regression analyses pinpointed the predictors of subjective well-being at work; for positive feelings at work, work relationships, evaluation, and diversity; for negative feelings at work, workspace and diversity; and for satisfaction with one’s work, meaningful work only.
