This study was intended to explore the subjective well-being (SWB) of different genders in Taiwanese college students from the perspective of Positive Psychology by delivering video-based interventions. Participants were 310 college students (104 males, 206 females) from 6 classes of general education courses. Two video clips eliciting two female engineers were used for intervention and played in a random order in different classes. The participants were asked to respond to the SWB scale before and after the videos played. The results indicated that after the participants exposed to video-based interventions, their SWB, psychological, social, and emotional well-being increased significantly in the post-test. Gender differences were also found to be significant. In the pre-test, female students were higher than male students in SWB, social, and emotional well-being. In the post-test, female students were higher than male students in SWB and social well-being. The results implied that female students were more concerned with social relationships and social mission in the social contexts as compared to male students. In conclusion, this study has evidenced an effect of video-based interventions to increase SWB and psychological, social, and emotional well-being in Taiwanese college students. It is suggested to promote SWB of people at other developmental stages through diverse video-based interventions to fulfill human well-being in the future. |
