Abstract

For a long time, the research and practice of job-seeking stress of college students have followed the therapeutic paradigm of traditional psychopathology, and the positive power of students themselves has not been paid enough attention. Subjective well-being (SWB) should not only be regarded as an object affected by adversity or pressure, but also a functional role with philosophical subject significance. The “broaden-and-build” effect of positive emotions makes subjective well-being an active system with integrity, dynamics, responsiveness, and promotion. Based on the “broaden-and-build” theory of positive emotions, this study constructs a conceptual framework of bidirectional interaction to characterize the two-way interaction form and internal mechanism between subjective well-being and job-seeking stress (JSS), which provides a new way to relieve job-seeking stress for Chinese college students.
