Four hundred and twenty-four college students expressed willingness to attend this study and completed the Gratitude Questionnaire, Adult Dispositional Hope Scale, Social Support Rating Scale, Satisfaction With Life Scale, and Happiness scale. The results stated that gratitude, social support, and hope positively affected life satisfaction and positive emotions, while negatively affected negative emotions. The separate mediating effects of social support and hope were stronger than their multiple mediating effect together. Besides, the difference of separate mediating power between social support and hope was not significant. Paying attention to college students' social support and hope may improve their subjective well-being. This study provided a reference for the protection and intervention of mental health counseling in colleges.Read More
