Abstract

Flourishing refers to a person's perceived feelings that life is going well. The purpose of this study is to increase our understanding of the flourishing experience, one of the psychological processes that occur in professional contexts. It aims to determine the relationship between flourishing and personality, self-efficacy, and self-esteem. Participants in the study were 856 workers selected through non-probability sampling and the data collected were processed with the SPSS 25.0 program. The factor obtained has adequate reliability and evidence of validity. A positive relationship is established between self-esteem, self-efficacy and flourishing. Regarding personality, the relationship is positive in relation to emotional stability and negative in relation to openness, conscientiousness and agreeableness. Emotional stability, self-efficacy, conscientiousness, self-esteem and agreeableness are the variables that account for greater variance when predicting flourishing.
