Abstract in brief

  • The studies collectively show that a grateful disposition is linked to positive emotions, well-being, prosocial behaviors, traits, and religiosity, and these findings were confirmed across different samples.
  • Gratitude is also negatively related to envy and materialism, and these relationships remain even when accounting for other personality factors like extraversion, neuroticism, and agreeableness.
  • Additionally, a reliable Gratitude Questionnaire was developed to measure this trait effectively.]
