Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 2007.

This paper began to investigate potential relationships among playfulness, perception of daily hassles, and life satisfaction in a population of college students. Additionally, the variables of gender, nationality, full-time or part-time student status, and grade point average were considered in relative to the key variable of playfulness. Correlation analyses found a weak positive correlation between playfulness and life satisfaction as well as weak negative correlations between perception of daily hassles and playfulness, and perception of daily hassles and life satisfaction. No correlation was demonstrated among playfulness and the secondary variables gender, nationality, full-time or part-time student status, or grade point average. Regression analyses demonstrated that playfulness and life satisfaction were significantly predictive of each other, but perception of daily hassles, gender, nationality, full-time or part-time student status, or grade point average were not found to be significantly predictive. One sub-group in this study, student-athletes were noted to be more homogenous than any other sub-group. This study contends that the trait of playfulness in adults, while not yet typically considered in serious scientific inquiry, is a valuable source of information concerning adults and worthy of more diligent study especially in relation to life satisfaction.
