    Der Beitrag untersucht die Auswirkungen der Covid-19-Pandemie und zweier Lockdowns auf die psychische Gesundheit und das subjektive Wohlbefinden von Beschäftigten in Deutschland. Hierzu wird mit Daten eines monatlichen Panels von Individualdaten von Dezember 2018 bis Dezember 2020 ein Event-Study-Design mit individualspezifischen Fixeffekten geschätzt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die erste und die zweite Welle der Pandemie die psychische Gesundheit von Arbeitnehmerinnen und Arbeitnehmern erheblich reduziert hat. Auch das momentane Glücksempfinden und die Lebenszufriedenheit nehmen als Reaktion auf Covid-19 ab, jedoch in geringerem Maße. Dabei ist zwischen den Wellen der Pandemie Adaption zu beobachten. Dies gilt in geringerem Maße für Indikatoren des Wohlbefindens in bestimmten Lebensbereichen, wie die Zufriedenheit mit der Arbeit und mit der Freizeit, die ebenfalls negativ beeinflusst werden. Frauen scheinen keine größeren Verluste an Wohlbefinden zu erleiden als Männer. Beschäftigte in Kurzarbeit sind jedoch besonders stark betroffen. Die Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass größere Sorgen in Bezug auf die Zukunft und eingeschränkte persönliche Freiheiten zu den Treibern für die Auswirkungen der Pandemie auf das Wohlbefinden gehören. Using individual monthly panel data from December 2018 to December 2020, we estimate the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and two lockdowns on the mental health and subjective well-being of German workers. Employing an event-study design using individual-specific fixed effects, we find that the first and the second wave of the pandemic reduced workers' mental health substantially. Momentary happiness and life satisfaction also decline in response to Covid-19, but to a smaller extent. We observe adaptation in our study outcomes between waves of the pandemic. This applies to a lesser extent to indicators of well-being in certain areas of life, such as satisfaction with the job and with leisure, which are negatively affected, too. Women do not seem to suffer greater well-being losses than men. However, workers in the German short-time work scheme are particularly negatively affected. Our results imply that increased anxiety about the future and restricted personal freedoms are among the drivers of the well-being impact of the pandemic.

However, these are usually not based on high-frequency data and mostly only collect data on selected dimensions of well-being. [...]

    Aesthetic perception and judgement are not merely cognitive processes, but also involve feelings. Therefore, the empirical study of these experiences requires conceptualization and measurement of aesthetic emotions. Despite the long-standing interest in such emotions, we still lack an assessment tool to capture the broad range of emotions that occur in response to the perceived aesthetic appeal of stimuli. Elicitors of aesthetic emotions are not limited to the arts in the strict sense, but extend to design, built environments, and nature. In this article, we describe the development of a questionnaire that is applicable across many of these domains: the Aesthetic Emotions Scale (Aesthemos). Drawing on theoretical accounts of aesthetic emotions and an extensive review of extant measures of aesthetic emotions within specific domains such as music, literature, film, painting, advertisements, design, and architecture, we propose a framework for studying aesthetic emotions. The Aesthemos, which is based on this framework, contains 21 subscales with two items each, that are designed to assess the emotional signature of responses to stimuli’s perceived aesthetic appeal in a highly differentiated manner. These scales cover prototypical aesthetic emotions (e.g., the feeling of beauty, being moved, fascination, and awe), epistemic emotions (e.g., interest and insight), and emotions indicative of amusement (humor and joy). In addition, the Aesthemos subscales capture both the activating (energy and vitality) and the calming (relaxation) effects of aesthetic experiences, as well as negative emotions that may contribute to aesthetic displeasure (e.g., the feeling of ugliness, boredom, and confusion).

    Emotional competence has an important influence on development in school. We hypothesized that reading and discussing children’s books with emotional content increases children’s emotional competence. To examine this assumption, we developed a literature-based intervention, named READING and FEELING, and tested it on 104 second and third graders in their after-school care center. Children who attended the same care center but did not participate in the emotion-centered literary program formed the control group (n = 104). Our goal was to promote emotional competence and to evaluate the effectiveness of the READING and FEELING program. Emotional competence variables were measured prior to the intervention and 9 weeks later, at the end of the program. Results revealed significant improvements in the emotional vocabulary, explicit emotional knowledge, and recognition of masked feelings. Regarding the treatment effect for detecting masked feelings, we found that boys benefited significantly more than girls. These findings underscore the assumption that children’s literature is an appropriate vehicle to support the development of emotional competence in middle childhood.
