Summary:碩士 === 國立彰化師範大學 === 輔導與諮商學系所 === 100 === This study explored the relationships among junior high school students’ life events, hope, and subjective well-being. The subjective well-being was consisted of emotions and life satisfaction. The subscales of hope included agency and pathways. The participants were students from the public junior high schools in the Great Taichung Area. A total of 579 questionnaires were distributed, and 508 were valid among the participants with valid data, 157 were seventh-graders, 176 eighth-graders, and 175 ninth-graders, with 252 identifying as male, 255 identifying as female, and 1 not identifying. In addition to demographic information, the participants completed 24 emotion terms, The Satisfaction with Life Scale, Hope Scale, and Adolescent Perceived Events Scale 2003. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s product-moment correlation, and multiple regressions. The results are as follows: 1. Junior high school students possess medium-level subjective well-being and hope, while their negative emotions are low. 2. Female junior high school students have less agency, more negative emotions, and more negative life events than male junior high school students. 3. Eighth graders have more negative emotions and less pathways. 4. Life events and hope are significantly related to subjective well-being. 5. Positive life events modulates the effect negative events have on well-being. Suggestions were made accordingly.
