Flow, personality, and life satisfaction
According to activity-based theories of life satisfaction, engagement in meaningful and challenging activities with clear goals and feedback results in the “flow” experience, leading to higher well-being. In other words, experiencing more flow in life should be related to greater life satisfaction. The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between experiencing flow in leisure time and life satisfaction controlling for personality traits. Participants were 140 males and 139 females, aged be-tween 18 and 67 years (M = 35.87, SD =14.75). They filled in Satisfaction with Life Scale (Pavot & Diener, 1993), IPIP-NEO-120 (Johnson, 2014) and measure of flow proneness in leisure time from Swedish Flow Proneness Questionnaire (Ullen et al., 2012). In line with the hypotheses, flow proneness was significantly correlated with life satisfaction (r = .50, p < .001), as well as with conscientiousness (r = .57, p < .001), neuroticism (r = -.49, p < .001), extraversion (r = .44, p < .001) and agreeableness (r = .24, p < .001). Also in line with previous findings life satisfaction was significantly correlated with extra-version (r = .41, p < .001), neuroticism (r = -.39, p < .001), conscientiousness (r = .37, p < .001) and agreeableness (r = .31, p < .001). In regression analysis, personality traits were entered first as predictors and they explained 30% of the variance in life satisfaction. Flow proneness was entered in the second step and explained additional 4% of the variance in life satisfaction. In line with activity-based theories of life satisfaction, experiencing flow seems to be related to higher life satisfaction, even when personality traits are controlled for.
