Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main aim of this study is to develop a home-related subjective well-being (SWB) scale. Referring to the OECD's definition of SWB,we defined the home-related SWB in three domains: home satisfaction, emotion at home, and eudaimonia derived from home. We confirmed that an assumed three-factor model of the home-related SWB has high statistical fitness. By analyzing scores of the home-related SWB with home-related factors, we found that determinants of the home-related SWB differ in each domain, and the influence of the home-related SWB on occupant's SWB in life. Conventional evaluation methods, which use housing satisfaction as a subjective index of housing quality, make it difficult to analyze various factors of the housing environment that contribute to residents' SWB in life. The development of a method for measuring the home-related SWB in this study makes it possible to analyze various factors of residential environment that contribute to increase occupants' well-being in life.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年のウェルビーイング研究の知見を住環境評価に応用する萌芽的な試みとして、家のSWBの構成概念を検討し、家のSWB尺度を開発した。開発した尺度は住環境評価で使用でき、家のSWBに関する基礎的な知見は家のSWBを測定する他の研究にも有用である。「住居満足」を指標とする従来手法では、「広さ」など認知的な側面に影響が強い要因の重要性が過大評価され、「共有スペース」など感情やエウダイモニアに寄与する要因が過小評価される事が明らかにされた。本研究で家の主観的幸福の測定手法が確立され、認知的な「住居満足」のみでは測定が困難であった居住者のウェルビーイングに寄与する多様な住環境の要因の分析が可能になった。
