We have a new paper examining whether a 12-day online gratitude journaling intervention enhances work engagement in Japanese employees. This study provides experimental evidence that gratitude journaling enhances work engagement by increasing awareness of job resources, integrating gratitude into the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Model. The findings suggest that gratitude journaling offers a promising, accessible, and low-cost tool for organizations to foster employee engagement. The full paper is available here.

It’s been a while! We have a new paper discussing the relationship between potential intervention targets (such as self-esteem, optimism, and gratitude) and subjective and psychological well-being among Japanese individuals. This topic is significant because it’s increasingly evident that positive psychology interventions may not be universally effective, particularly due to cultural variations. Hopefully, these results may orient future attempts (including our own) in developing more effective interventions. The full paper is available here.
