The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between employee energy and subjective well-being in the form of a moderated mediating model in which flourishing as a mediator and prosocial motivation as a moderator were examined. The present study was a descriptive correlational study. The sample consisted of 193 nurses of Baqaei Hospital 2 in Ahvaz who were selected by the census method. The instruments used in the study were Energy Scale of Atwater and Carmeli, Flourishing Scale of Diener et al., Subjective Well-Being Scale of Diener et al., and Prosocial Motivation Scale of Grant and Sumanth. Evaluation of the theoretical research model and indirect effects was done by partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and using Smart-PLS3 software. Also, the moderating effects were investigated using the PROCESS v3.5 plugin in SPSS-24 software. The results showed that employees' energy at work has a positive and direct relationship with flourishing (β=0.61, p<0.0001) and subjective well-being (β=0.14, p<0.030). Also, the mediating role of flourishing in the relationship between energy and subjective well-being was confirmed (β=0.40, p<0.0001). Finally, the results showed that the interaction of prosocial motivation and energy has a negative and significant effect on the flourishing and subjective well-being of employees. According to the results of this study, the subjective well-being of employees, which is one of the indicators of mental health, is influenced by individual variables such as energy, flourishing, and prosocial motivation.

IntroductionEffective educational models must properly observe the needs of the new age and be based on scientific theories. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an educational model with constructivism learning theory.MethodThis research is a qualitative study that uses the method of content analysis by Brown and Clark (2006). The participants of this study were 22 experts on the subject who were selected by purposive sampling method.The strategy of selecting these researchers was based on the relevance of their published articles in line with this research topic. In other words, only those researchers were selected who had the most theoretical relevance and research background on the subject. The rule of theoretical saturation was also used as the basis to determine the number of participants.InstrumentsData analysis was performed in three stages of open coding, axial coding and selective coding. MAXQDA 2018 software was use for data analysis. The validity of the findings was assessed based on content validity component (CVI) and the reliability of the findings was assessed based on the kappa coefficient test.ResultsThe findings of this study led to the identification of ten components as follows: subject, participation, learner-centered, activation, learning context, support, knowledge and experience, presentation, application and evaluation which together form an educational model based on constructivism model. ConclusionThe research findings suggest that the current model be used to increase student participation and interaction in the classroom.
