Literature Review
With this, individuals who have feelings toward lying flatism are predicted to have positive attitudes toward singlehood, as the relief of being single without the disappointment of seeking a romantic relationship is desirable. Therefore, young adults who have feelings of lying flatism are expected to have positive attitudes toward singlehood, since they feel good about being single (no longer afraid of the intrusion of others). Meanwhile, according to Darrington et al. 2005), strengthening the emotional bond with friends may promote the development of positive attitudes toward singlehood.
Individuals who practice lying flatism avoid having a romantic relationship, marriage, and children (Chen, 2021; DW News, 2021; Jiang, 2021). In short, according to the brief discussion above, it is predicted that individuals who have feelings towards lying flatism believe that their happiness can be achieved without engaging in a romantic relationship, as they are able to reduce stress when they remain single, and thus improve one's subjective happiness. . Therefore, happiness belief may predict positive attitudes towards singleness, as high life satisfaction is desirable to remain single.
A conceptual framework of the relationship between feelings toward liar patism, beliefs about happiness, and attitudes toward singleness.
Methodology
Therefore, without a complete list of the target population for the selection process, random sampling method is not applicable in this study. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the two groups: experimental group or control group through Qualtrics randomiser. To measure the effectiveness of the manipulation, participants will be asked to rate a single item created for feelings against lying flatism and continue with the rest of the instruments in this study.
Both Cronbach alpha and McDonald omega coefficients in the study by Tan et al. 2021) was greater than 0.82, indicating excellent reliability of the scale. Participants were directed to the rest of the study once they had completed the essay. Before the end of the study, participants were debriefed about the actual purpose and procedures of the study.
Hayes' Process Macro v4.0 (Model 4) was used in testing a mediational model (Hayes, 2013) of the relationship between emotions toward fakeness, beliefs about happiness, and attitudes toward singleness.
Result
Regarding work status, the majority of the participants were currently studying participants (8.2%) were currently employed, and 3. Results show that there is a significant difference in the feelings towards lying flatism for experimental group (M = . 32, SD = .717) and. Referring to table 4.4, the independent sample t-test result for the feelings towards lying flatism before writing the essay was not significantly different between both.
Paired Samples The t-Test was administered to determine whether there is a difference in feelings about lying flatism before and after writing the essay. Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) was calculated to examine the strength of the relationship between two variables. Referring to Table 4.6, after controlling for gender, singleness, and fear of being single, the results showed that feelings toward lying flatism have a low and positive significant correlation with both happiness beliefs, rp < .001, and attitudes toward of being single, rp < . 001.
In addition, there was a moderate and positive significant correlation between happiness belief and attitudes towards singleness, r p <.001. Regression analysis was applied to examine the regression of feelings towards lying flatulence on happiness belief and attitudes towards singlehood. The result with gender, singleness, and fear of being single controlled indicated that feelings toward lying flatulence was a significant predictor of attitudes toward singleness, B = 1.12, SE CI β.
It aimed to investigate whether happiness belief mediated the relationship between feelings toward false flattery and attitudes toward singleness, controlling for gender, singleness, and fear of being single. As both the direct and indirect effect were statistically significant, it was shown that mediation occurred in the current study, that is, happiness belief is able to mediate between feelings toward false flattery and attitudes toward singleness. The above mediation model illustrated the unstandardized regression coefficients for the relationship between feelings toward false flattery and attitudes toward singleness, mediated by happiness belief, with singleness and fear of being single controlled.
The unstandardized regression coefficients for total effect between feelings toward lying flatism and attitudes toward singleness are in parentheses. H3: The belief of happiness has a positive relationship with attitudes towards singleness among young adults in Malaysia.
