Abstract(s)

Literature claims that dispositional affect can be an antecedent of important life outcomes, such as experiences of (un)success (Lyubomirsky et al, 2005). In academic contexts, literature supports the relationship between dispositional affect and indicators of goal achievement (Chartier et al, 2011). However, little is known about the processes that might be conducive to this effect.
