摘要: Using the experience sampling method (ESM) and a diverse national sample of young people, this study identifies two groups adolescents: those who chronic interest in everyday life experiences another widespread boredom. These are compared against several measures psychological well-being: global self-esteem, locus control, emotions regarding one's future prospects. It is hypothesized that generalized interest, an innate physiological function, can be used as signal for larger measure health, while boredom sign psychic dysfunction. A strong association between well-being was found.
