Two studies were conducted to investigate the effects of gratitude on a person's well-being and stress-buffering ability. Study 1 revealed that a disposition toward gratitude was associated with cognitive and emotional well-being and the following psychological resources: self-esteem, self-efficacy, optimism, and perceived social support. These positive correlations were remarkable in the high-stress group. In Study 2, the effect of a grateful outlook on well-being was examined. Participants who kept a diary about blessings for a week exhibited high cognitive well-being, self-esteem and optimism, and low negative affect relative to controls. These results confirm the function of gratitude in psychological well-being and suggest that a conscious focus on blessings is an effective way of achieving a happier life.
