Abstract
► Measured life satisfaction (LS), Big 5 traits, gratitude, and appreciation (N = 243). ► Appreciation explains variance in LS above demographics, Big 5, and gratitude. ► Gratitude contributes to LS above demographics & Big 5, but not above appreciation. ► Appreciation uniquely explains 11% of the variance in LS, p < .001. ► Appreciation is more than just gratitude or the Big 5 personality traits.
