Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Resources represent personal characteristics or goods that an individual uses or has access to in everyday life or in specific life situations. According to Diener and Fujita (1995, p. 926), resources include “material, social or personal characteristics that a person possesses that he or she can use to make progress towards his or her goals. Resources can be external possessions (e.g. money), social roles (e.g. being a chair person) and personal characteristics (e.g. intelligence)”. The concept of resources thus represents an umbrella term, including variables that are assumed to have positive effects on the individuals’ goal pursuit and development.
