Abstract

Subjective Well-Being has become the primary goal of individuals to improve their quality of life. In particular, it also mainly applies to female teachers serving as both mother and teacher. This research aims to understand the influence of gratitude, optimism, and work-family balance on female teachers' subjective well-being in Yogyakarta. The study involved 83 female teachers as subjects. The data was chosen through purposive sampling technique and collected using the quantitative method. To obtain the data, the researchers employed subjective well-being scales, gratitude scales, optimism scales, and work-family balance scales. The data were analyzed using multiple regression through the SPSS computer program. The regression analysis resulted in (R) of 0.787 with p=0.001 (p<0.01). It shows that there are highly significant positive relationships among the variables of gratitude, optimism, and work-family balance and female teachers' subjective well-being in Yogyakarta. The variables of gratitude, optimism, and work-family balance reached the correlation of t 2.932 with p=0.004 (p<0.05); t 4.721 with p = 0.001 (p<0.01), and t 05.042 with p = 0.001 (p<0.01), respectively. The values show that the relation between the three variables and subjective well-being is significantly positive.
