Relation of agency and communion to subjective well‐being: The role of self‐reported emotional competencies

Previous studies reported the importance of communion and agency for an individual`s well- being. However, it remains unclear what exactly accounts for the predictive effects of these broad trait dimensions. In the present study, it was hypothesized that emotionrelated competencies would mediate the relationship between the Big Two and subjective well-being. Specifically, intrapersonal aspects of emotion-related competencies were expected to mediate the relationship between agency and well-being, whereas interpersonal aspects were expected to represent a mediator in the relationship between communion and well-being. 443 Croatian and Slovene participants filled out the Emotional Skills and Competences Inventory, the Emotion Regulation questionnaire, the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form, and the Agency and Communion Scale. Results of the structural equation modelling confirmed the differential role of interpersonal and intrapersonal aspects of emotion-related competencies in the relationship of agency and communion with subjective well-being.
