Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: Conservative ideology, broadly speaking, has been widely linked to greater happiness and meaning in life. Is that true of all forms of a good life? We examined whether a psychologically rich life is associated with political orientation, system justification, and Protestant work ethic, independent of two other traditional forms of a good life: a happy life and a meaningful life.
METHODS: Participants completed a questionnaire that assessed conservative worldviews and three aspects of well-being (N = 583 in Study 1; N = 348 in Study 2; N = 436 in Study 3; N = 1,217 in Study 4; N = 2,176 in Study 5; N = 516 in Study 6).
RESULTS: Happiness was associated with political conservatism and system justification, and meaning in life was associated with Protestant work ethic. In contrast, zero-order correlations showed that psychological richness was not associated with conservative worldviews. However, when happiness and meaning in life were included in multiple regression models, the nature of the association shifted: Psychological richness was consistently inversely associated with system justification and on average less political conservatism, suggesting that happiness and meaning in life were suppressor variables.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that happiness and meaning in life are associated with conservative ideology, whereas psychological richness is not.

摘要：
目标：保守的意识形态，广义地说,与生活中更大的幸福和意义有着广泛的联系。所有形式的美好生活都是如此吗？我们研究了心理丰富的生活是否与政治取向有关，系统理由，和新教徒的职业道德，独立于其他两种传统的美好生活形式：幸福的生活和有意义的生活。
方法：参与者填写了一份问卷，评估了保守的世界观和幸福感的三个方面（研究1中N=583；研究2中N=348；研究3中N=436；研究4中N=1,217；研究5中N=2,176；研究6中N=516）。
结果：幸福与政治保守主义和制度辩护有关，生活的意义与新教徒的职业道德有关。相比之下,零级相关表明，心理丰富度与保守的世界观无关。然而,当幸福和生活意义被纳入多元回归模型时，关联的性质发生了变化：心理上的丰富性始终与系统合理性成反比，平均而言，政治保守主义较少，这表明幸福和生活的意义是抑制变量。
结论：这些发现表明，生活中的幸福和意义与保守的意识形态有关，而心理上的丰富不是。
