The indirect effect of daily flow experience on affective well-being through less negative views on aging by Samuel Finnigan, Jiawan Zhong, Dwight C.K. Tse

“…In a diary study, 83 UK-residing participants aged 50 to 85 (mean = 62.16) completed daily surveys assessing their flow experiences in their main activities, negative views on aging, and positive and negative affect for 14 consecutive days. Multilevel structural equation modeling revealed that at both within- and between-person levels, greater flow experiences were related to lesser negative views on aging and, in turn, greater positive affect and lesser negative affect. …”
