شادكامي مفهومي است كه در سال هاي اخير بواسطه نقشي كه در بهزيستي روانشناختي و سلامت اجتماعي افراد دارد، اهميت بسزايي يافته است. پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسي نقش شادكامي در پيش بيني بهزيستي روانشناختي دانش آموزان پسر ورزشكار بود. تعداد ??? دانش آموز فعال بدني به صورت نمونه گيري خوشه اي چندمرحله اي از ميان دانش آموزان پسر فعال بدني شهرستان مياندوآب در سال تحصيلي ??-???? انتخاب شدند و به مقياس كوتاه افسردگي- شادكامي Joseph و همكاران (با پايايي ?/??) و مقياس بهزيستي روانشناختي Ryff (با پايايي ?/??) كه داراي شش مولفه؛ پذيرش خود، تسلط محيطي، روابط مثبت با ديگران، هدف در زندگي، رشد فردي و استقلال بود، پاسخ دادند. نتايج نشان داد كه بين شادكامي و بهزيستي روانشناختي ارتباط وجود دارد (?/?? = r). همچنين، شادكامي بصورت مثبت و معنادار تغييرات مربوط بهزيستي روانشناختي را پيش بيني مي كند (?/??? = R2؛ ?/??? > P). تقويت و ارتقا شادكامي همراه با فعاليت هاي حركتي و ورزشي مي تواند به افزايش بهزيستي روانشناختي دانش آموزان كمك كند.

Happiness is a concept which has become of high importance for the past years because of its role in psychological well-being and the social health of people. The present research has been conducted to study the role of happiness in predicting the psychological well-being of male athlete students. A number of 100 physically active students were chosen through multistep cluster sampling out of male physically active students in the city of Miyandoab in the academic year 1391-92. They responded to the short scale depression-happiness of Joseph et al. (with the stability of 0.69) and Ryff’s scale of psychological well-being (with the stability of 0.68) having six components of self-acceptance, environmental mastery, positive relations with others, purpose in life, personal growth and independence. The results showed that there is a relationship between happiness and well-being (r = 0.53). Also, happiness, in a positive and meaningful way, predicts changes pertaining to psychological well-being (p < 0.001; r2 = 0.282). Enhancing and improving happiness along with physical and sportive activities may help increase psychological well-being of students.
