초록

Based on the challenge and threat state theory(Jones et al., 2009), the main purpose of this study were to test the multiple mediation effects of personal goal pursuit and goal attainment in the relationship between cognitive appraisals and happiness among professional dancers. A total of 287 professional dancers (79 males, 208 females) participated in the studies. Data were conducted using descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation, and structural equation modeling. The results of structural equation modeling related to two hypotheses were as follows; First, professional dancers’ goal pursuit and goal attain ment partially mediated the relationship between challenge appraisal and happiness. Second, professional dancers’ threat appraisal to stressful sit uations had a direct impact on happiness and did not influence to happi ness via their goal pursuit and goal attainment. In conclusion, the results imply that it is very important for pro fessional dancers to perceive stressful events at works as challengeable and valuable for enhancing their satisfaction of life and happiness.
