Abstract

The goal of the present research was to investigate
predictive relationships of forgiveness and mindfulness with happiness. The
sample was composed of 246 university students studying at a state university
in Turkey. The data was collected by using personal information form, Oxford
Happiness Scale-Short Form, Heartland Forgiveness Scale, and Mindful Attention
Awareness Scale. Before the analysis, data was analyzed for normal
distribution. Then, correlation analysis was carried out to determine the
relationships among happiness, forgiveness and mindfulness. Hierarchical
regression analysis was carried out to specify predictive relationships of
forgiveness, and mindfulness with happiness. The results showed that there was
a positive and significant relationship among happiness, mindfulness and
forgiveness subscales. Moreover, hierarchical regression analysis showed that
forgiveness of situations and mindfulness predicted happiness. The results were
discussed in light of the literature.
