• Integrating the hedonic and eudaimonic perspectives to more comprehensively understand wellbeing and pathways to wellbeing (2012, unknown): “27 nations, with results confirming the strong relationship between the full life and life satisfaction (Chan, 2009; Chen, Tsai, & Chen, 2010; Park et al., 2009; Ruch, Harzer, Proyer, Park, & Peterson, 2010; Vella-Brodrick, Park, & Peterson, 2009).”
• An exploration of the well-being benefits of hedonic and eudaimonic behaviour (2013, background): “Research has established excellent psychometric properties for the SWLS (Diener, 1994), and the measure has been found to be highly reliable and has a large network of sensible correlates (Park et al., 2009).”
• Self- and peer-rated character strengths: How do they relate to satisfaction with life and orientations to happiness? (2013, methodology): “, Park et al., 2004b; Peterson et al., 2007). Second, the relationship of peer-rated character strengths with life satisfaction and the three orientations to happiness were tested. Overall, we expected peerrated strengths to yield a similar correlation pattern as the one reported in earlier studies ”

• Hedonic Versus Eudaimonic Conceptions of Well-being: Evidence of Differential Associations With Self-reported Well-being (2011, background): “The present study is thus consistent with previous research indicating that eudaimonic approaches to well-being are potentially more important for positive psychological functioning than hedonic approaches (e.g., McMahan and Estes 2010; Park et al. 2009; Peterson et al. 2005; Steger et al. 2008).”
• Linking Peoples’ Pursuit of Eudaimonia and Hedonia with Characteristics of their Parents: Parenting Styles, Verbally Endorsed Values, and Role Modeling (2012, background): “One or both pursuits have been correlated with greater psychological well-being, lower mental illness, and greater physical health (Bauer and McAdams 2010; Chan 2009; Friedman et al. 2007; Huta and Ryan 2010; Joshanloo and Ghaedi 2009; Kafka and Kozma 2002; Keyes and Annas 2009; Keyes et al. 2002; N”
