The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between gratitude disposition, positive job attitude, subjective well-being, and feeling of happiness of female workers, and examined mediating effects of job attitude between gratitude disposition and subjective well-being. The participants were 359 female workers, whose average of age was 29.12 (SD=6.49). The psychological tests used in this research included the following: Gratitude Questionnaire-6 (GQ-6), Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ), Emotion Frequency Test, Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS). The results indicated that gratitude disposition was positively correlated with positive job attitude, such as job satisfaction and organizational commitment of female workers. And, gratitude disposition and positive job attitude were positively correlated with subjective well-being or feeling of happiness. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that job attitude partially mediated gratitude disposition and subjective well-being or feeling of happiness. Stepwise regression analysis showed that organizational commitment accounted most variance of subjective well-being, while gratitude disposition accounted most variance of feeling of happiness of female workers. The positive effects of gratitude disposition and job attitude were discussed with previous studies, and clinical meaning of this study were recommended.
