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.
