Resilience is the ability to succeed despite a lot of barriers, hurdles, and obstacles that make it difficult for students to succeed in life. The resilience level of students is critical as it assists them in adjusting their life pressures, stresses, adapting to new environments and overcoming challenges. The current study aimed to investigate the gender difference in resilience among the students of IIT Kharagpur belonging to two different age groups. The sample consisted of 137 students, including 80 boys and 57 girls. The instruments used were Schutte's Emotional Intelligence Scale for emotional intelligence and the Brief Resilience Scale for resilience. Product Moment Correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the association between emotional intelligence, CGPA, and resilience. The findings revealed that female students are more resilient than male students, and there was no association between CGPA and resilience. However, there was a significant relationship between emotional intelligence and resilience. Studies on resilience could be helpful for educational psychologists, counselors, educational researchers, and curriculum developers to organize some programs to enhance the coping and resilience level of students, which may have a direct effect on students' performance and educational level.Keywords

Mortality and morbidity are two crucial components to assess the standard of the health system of a nation. This paper examines the spatial variation in the status of morbidity and mortality in Odisha using three rounds of Annual Health Survey Data conducted from 2010-13. Chronic and acute diseases were used to analyse the status of morbidity whereas crude death rate, infant mortality rate, neonatal, post-neonatal and under-five mortality rates were used to analyse mortality status in the state of Odisha. The composite index depicted the spatial variation in morbidity and mortality across the different districts. Five dimensions were identified through Principal Component analysis which indicated the association between the selected indicators of mortality and morbidity. It was found that the developed districts reported high morbidity and underdeveloped districts reported low morbidity. On the other hand, the underdeveloped districts reported high mortality and developed districts reported low mortality. The results of the study illustrate the importance of the provision of health infrastructures, improvement in education, medical awareness, governmental policies and schemes to improve the overall health status in Odisha.Keywords

Happiness is gaining popularity not only in academics but also in politics. Through a review of research, this study attempts to investigate if renewable energy may contribute to happiness and discovered that the relationship between energy usage and environmental quality on subjective well-being has received a lot of attention. Existing fossil fuel consumption has consequences that endanger the lives and well-being of those who are already most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The goal of this study is to summarise the association between renewable energy consumption and subjective welling. According to the study, using renewable energy improves environmental quality whereas using fossil fuels degrades it. The two are intrinsically linked: environmental quality and subjective well-being. Other findings on the positive effects of renewable energy on subjective well-being support policymakers in developing future energy transition policies that must take well-being concerns into account. It can be concluded that renewable energy consumption can be associated with subjective well-being but cannot act as a whole.- Effects of Digital Technology on Juvenile Well-being: A Systematic Review

The purpose of this article is to present a synopsis of the research on juvenile well-being and the usage of digital technologies. In sum, the data suggest that the consequences are generally unfavourable, but negligible. Procrastination and passive usage are associated with greater negative impacts, while social and active uses are associated with more good outcomes. Short-term indicators of hedonic well-being (such as negative affect) are more strongly affected by digital technology use than long-term eudaimonic well-being indicators (e.g., life satisfaction). Adolescents are particularly susceptible, but adults are not spared either. Evidently, low and high usage are linked to lower levels of happiness, but moderate usage is associated with higher levels of happiness. There are many gaps in the existing research that need to be filled. There is a lack of high-quality research that include large samples, objective measures of digital technology use, and experience sampling of happiness.Keywords

The study of subjective well-being has become a prime new topic in what we know about the causes and effects of migration. It has the potential to make important contributions to the field of migration studies. This paper tries to organise and assess the developing research on migration and happiness from a worldwide perspective. Both internal and international migration are examined in this paper, which also takes into account the perspectives of many stakeholders, like migrants themselves, as well as the host communities and extended families that they leave behind. The study found that migration decisions are greatly influenced by happiness, with somewhat dissatisfied people moving to happier places even after taking into consideration traditional migration predictors. When it comes to global migration, the majority of international migrants report happiness gains, whereas hosting communities have a mixed but minor effect, and family members who remain behind report an overall favourable impact on evaluative well-being but a negative impact on emotional well-being. The consequences, on the other hand, are highly context-dependent and there is a significant variance between individuals. Internal migrants are less affected by migration. Overall, the study concludes that migration improves the world by primarily benefiting migrants while having only minor negative consequences for host communities.
