4028.23 The mediational role of family-esteem between positive attitude, Sense of Purpose and
subjective well-being in Korean old adults, Gyuseog Han 1 , Eunhee Lee 2 , Suja Gong 1 , 1 Chonnam
National University, Korea, (Republic Of); 2 Chonnam National University, Korea
This study examined the relationships among positive attitude toward life, sense of purpose,
emotional balance, and life satisfaction in old adults (aged 60-91) in Korea. Two hundred adults
participated in interview from a metropolitan area. Structural equation modeling showed that the
effects of positive attitude and of a sense of purpose on the life satisfaction are mediated by
family-esteem and emotional balance. The sense of purpose showed direct effects on emotional
balance. But the positive attitude showed no direct effects on emotional balance. These results
contribute to the understanding of cultural influence on the subjective well-being.

common with traditional Chinese culture and reflects the Zeitgeist of multiplicity and
compatibility.
